Thumbs up Gordon Murray (McLaren) designs a car for the 3rd world

Although still not in full production yet, Murray has with some backers designed a car which will help change the lives of people in 2nd and 3rd world countries. It's called the "Ox".

The idea is a practical, simple and an adaptable to whatever needs the end user orders by model.

Gordon wants to get this happening as a "not for profit" scenario.

Yes, the end users will still have to pay for the Ox and have fuel and parts availability. So let's just try see this as a positive idea.
