Cliff, with his latest post on the 'Ugliest Rear End' thread has set us a challenge I think.
I'm sure we can come up with quite a few, can't we? :D
To start us off, what about the Nissan 100NX with those weird deep-set headlights?
Or the frog-eyed Scorpio?
Morgan Aero 8 has a face that only a mother could love.
|
The Peugeot 407 looks like it's shouting "Aaaaagghh!" constantly.
The Citroen C5 has got far too much front overhang. It looks out of balance.
|
Ooo, good point. How did I miss out the 407?
Subaru Impreza has got to be another one. Get's away with it coz of the performance, but it's certainly not a looker.
|
Mitsubishi Evo-
looks like Kev has been at it.
Mark IV Ford Zodiac flat pack from IKEA?

I wasna fu but just had plenty.

Fiat Multipla,
Must have hit every branch on the way down, when it fell out of the ugly tree.
(But I quite like it in a strange kind of way...)

Vauxhall Corsa. So bland and uninspiring it is the only car I've ever seen that looks better AFTER an accident. Designed by a man whose idea of a wild night is showing the neighbours photos of his holiday chalet in Frinton.
Ought to be made illegal.

Scenic RX4x4, with that jutting front lower lip. www.theaustralian.news.com.au/common/imagedata/0,1...g Looks like a Stone fish. www.starfish.ch/photos/fishes-Fische/scorpionfishe...g
ND, I think you got your links the wrong way around...

Not sure if this belongs in the ugliest front or rear end but...
Renault Vel Satis
Saw my first one in the metal yesterday..UGLY

How about the Daihatsu Sirion - looks like a 1950s Hillman
|
Take one Sirion, add 1" bigger wheels all round, jack up suspension slightly, zoom-in : one Porsche Cayenne.

Allegro Vanden Plas.

Mini Clubman - hideous & unnecessary change to the original Mini "face".
|
No one has mentioned the '95 Scorpio so i won't.
My favourite ugly front end design disaster is the '92 Escort fish face.
|
|
Any Hyundai with that horrendous, vertical-barred front grille. SEAT could do with losing that cheap-looking 'S' badge, too...
|
|
having included Lexus 200 in "ugly rears", only fair to point out that I love the front
|
|
New 407 - scares the bejeesus out of Krill (I understand)
|
|
The worst front on any car is the KIA Magentis, I would buy a car thats ugly but not even I could drive one of these.
|
|
|
|
Jaguar S type. Looks surprised
Despite owning an Octavia, i'm not impressed with the grilles on Skodas - they're a bit, well, mid 90's Rover facelift.
|
|
Ford Scorpio, Peugeot 407, Ssangyong Rexton, facelifted mark 1 Scenic with those ugly rectanglar blocks of front lamp clusters
|
Ford Mondeo mk2. It looks like badly made flat teddy bear run over by Sierra.
The new Range Rover. Those spider cluster headlamps look like it had some serious eye disease.
Fiat Multipla. Simply hideous. Is it a duck? Is it a dolphin? Leaves no doubt why genetic experiments should be banned.
New Nissan Primera. Whole car looks like whale washed out on the shore and left there for few days on the sun.
Lancia Thesis. It looks like bloated, fat Vel Satis.

Then click on " see more photographs" for that dash.
They do not make em like that any more. Only 452 made and this one is sold
|
I love the steering wheel!
looks like it came straight off the bridge of the starship enterprise
|
Saw the new Chrysler 300 yesterday. And Chrysler are trying to sell this in the UK??? It's awful.
|

Looks like someone has stuck a compressor up the tailpipe of a volvo S70 and inflated it.
|
|
|
|
They do not make em like that any more.
Thank god for that. It was hideous when new both inside and out, and time has done it no favours. No one is shocked they only made 452, glad they managed to sell the last one!
|
Only two cars have managed to pass the "god thats still ugly after all these years" test in my eyes
Yup the good old scorpio. As my mum would say, "makes me stomache 'eave" Even after all these years.
Mulitpla, I nearly got one - just to be different, I would be blind by now if I had.
|
|
|
|
A pity, in my view.
Too big a gap between front wheels and arches. If the wheelbase had been a bit longer, the bonnet had been a bit shorter, the rear screen not as steeply angled... the Lagonda could have been beautiful.
But then when I think about it, it would have been a little similar to possibly my favourite-shaped saloon, the previous-generation Maserati Quattroporte.

How about going for the big one - the new Rolls-Royce Phantom?

|
Second thoughts: Morgan Aero 8. Yes!!!!
Cheers, Sofa Spud

Is it amphibious? !!!
I've only ever seen one of these things.

No one has suggested the CityRover as far as I can see?
or does it not count as a proper car?
