HELP! - I've been asked to come up with some examples of Good and Bad Design...

I've been asked to come up with some (physical) examples of Good and Bad design - I've done this, but I'm not very pleased with my ideas... What do you think?

Good design -

F1 Racing car (ultimate!),

Memory stick (meh!),

 A very old but very neat bottle opener which belonged to my dad - Special because it had a very clever cam on the handle/thread which meant that you turned the handle one way to both put the screw into the cork and to pull it after - Very neat! (a bit like this)

Bad Design - Atriculated / Bendy Bus

Does anyone else have any suggestions (esp. for BAD designs) please

Do robots dream of electric sheep?
