Amazing art cars

Art cars are pretty special. Their owners/designers are known as Cartists and they're reflections of their owners' personalities.
Some are brilliant - original and elegant in design. But as with all art, some of them can be pretty ropey. Still - we're not here to look at the terrible ones, we're looking at some of the all-time greats.
Whether they're bright and bold, subtle and slinky or plain ol' pretty, it's worth taking note of the work that went into creating these gorgeous cars. And if you ever get the opportunity to see them in the metal, do take it - they tend to be once-in-a-lifetime type sightings.
