What do a 300k Roller, a pill-shaped diesel hybrid, a pure electric saloon and an 8k city car have in common? Nothing. Not a sausage. Yet each one in turn is triggering the same involuntary spasms in my cheeks, causing the edges of my mouth to curl upwards. Most curious.There can be only one explanation: that joy needn"t necessarily come from cremating a set of tyres and generally acting like a yob. There"s pleasure in cleverness, too, in exceptional design that fits the brief and then some, because when a set of engineers really put their heads together something outside of the box often emerges. And things that are different, tend to be fun.Photography: Rowan HorncastleThis feature was originally published in issue 285 of Top Gear magazine.
