I find the vast majority of cars boring and or unappealing, the endless rows of hatchbacks and crossovers no more attactive than the choices in washing machines, cloned to the nth degree and often downright ugly...Nissan Joke a prime example but there many others, Audi A1 now competing with Micra for ugly as sin, MB's banana shape and others complete with the arrow slit windows shaped in above the slab sides, Honda's latest ruinous blinging up of the previously simply handsome Accord, how on earth anyone can find them in the least attractive is beyond me.
There's only a handful of cars i'd currently swap my 15 year old Benz for.
Landcruiser or Hilux of any variant, Lexus GS450h, Hyundai Sonata/Kia Magentis.
The first because i've had them before and they are no nonsense tough reliable and durable and unique, Second because it gives sports car performance with limo silent luxury with the costs of a large Diesel car and is unique, Third because they offer just about the only 3 box traditional and reliable saloons you can still buy here so are now unique.
The average car park leaves me feeling quite happy with my choice.
