Well, there's the A4, I'm not a huge fan but as a working piece of art deco it's certainly stood the test of time. Then there is our old friend the original, 1959, Mini. The Ford Transit, which has of course, as "The Tranny" become the generic phrase for any panel van sold anywhere in the UK!

Oh and I mustn't forget Concorde - how many other aircraft have brought major roads to a total standstill?

I'm sure others will have their own ideas but there's mine for starters.

The De Havilland Comet - the worlds first jet airliner. OK the Comet one had fatigue problems, but the mark 4 flew well into the 70's and the RAF still use a variant but that is the Nimrod. And that is, in it's own way, another icon.
