Peter Stevens, Director of design, MG Rover.
Should we know Peter as a guy who loves Fiat 500s or the man who designed the McLaren F1? I am not sure, but one thing I am sure of: this man is a car guy through and through. That MG are immensely lucky to have Peter on board as the design chief need not be emphasised; his curriculum vitae is one of the strongest in the industry. So far his work at MG Rover has been impressive. The remarkable transformation of the sometimes dowdy Rover saloons into enthusiast sports saloons is impressive, as has the morphing of the Qvale Mangusta into the X80 concept previewed at Geneva, 2001. His next work on an existing car will be the Mk3 MGF, due to be launched in January 2002. But we'll have to wait a little longer before seeing what Peter is truly capable of by turning his hand to creating a clean-sheet MG. In my opinion, the future is bright; the future is octagonal!
