	Pininfarina 1800
		Pininfarina did contribute to the 1800 and can claim credit for the "cows hips" aspect of the rear wing styling as Issigonis's original designs were too rounded giving the rear a bulbous appearance.
		Although Pininfarina's contribution to the Oxford/Cambridge was promoted in BMC's advertising and press material no such recognition applied to the elegant 1100, although BMC insiders admitted to the involvement at the time of its release.
		Pininfarina decided to end the decade-old relationship since it was clear to any perceptive observer that BMC was heading for disaster.

		Pininfarina reviewed the company's achievements and listed his favorites: the 250 GT of 1954; the first great Ferrari by Pininfarina; the Dino 206 of 1965, the last car his father worked on; the 356 2+2, which he drives himself; and the Modena, which he called a "more refined and civilized" Ferrari.
		Pininfarina pointed to the Ethos line of concept cars his firm designed in the mid-1990's, with electric and hybrid powerplants, and to its recent Metrocube, a design study for a city car.

		Of course, at the beginning, Sergio would get a lot of advice and guidance from his father, but think about this: Since that day in 1952, Sergio Pininfarina has been responsible for the design of nearly every Ferrari produced, including many racecars.

		When I ask myself what Sergio Pininfarina has really meant to the success of Ferrari, I think of the Lusso, the Boxer and the 500 Superfast; I think of the Dino and the Daytona and the 308.
