Design Notes -This was in my draft pile dated Aug 12, 2007.  It started as a "Rear Guard Luxury" for the convoy project, what eventually became this car.  I decided to keep the original design for use as a rear-guard vehicle.   However, it lacks many of the "modern" tweaks I use, so I'm also making an upgrade (check this space).


Name Notes - Prospero is a moon of Uranus, according to the Wiki: "discovered on 18 July 1999 by the astrophysicist Matthew Holman and his team ... named after the sorcerer Prospero in William Shakespeare's play The Tempest."
