The Worst Looking Car In the world

Volvoboy

I found this car on a volvo website a while ago, it without doubt has to be the worst looking car ever,

Its hard to beleve (or not) that this car was the concept of a volvo 240 series.

Any other crap looking cars that you know of?

In fairness it looks in line with the style of the 70's ish. Modern **** looking cars look no further than fiat and anything with an engine size less that 1.3l

One of the worst looking cars of all time has to be the current Daewoo/Chevrolet people carrier yoke. Absolutely hideous. So bad that I'd rather have a Vanden Plas Allegro.

a bit of a vendetta against Mr.Bangle there ds, no?!
Brian, you talking about this?
Ssangyong Rodius

Feck ya ds, and your lack of liking of Beamers.




And look what I found when I did an image search for "ugly cars"

I wouldn't say the BMW X5 is that bad looking in my opinion, granted a lot of the Jap. SUV's are pretty awful alright. I always liked older boxy Volvo's, I think Volvo lost the plot nowadays with their crappy looking Renault based yokes. It's certainly getting harder to find an attractive looking car at the moment as they're all starting to look like each other or else look hideous.

Volvo are owned by ford now so there is alot of cars are based on others

Nonsense, I do like Beemers. Previous shape 5 series is a handsome car, in an understated kind of way. Ditto the previous 7. Not beautiful, but handsome. 3.0 CS is beautiful. Old shape 635 striking. 2002 cute. New 5, 6 and 7 are just plain ugly. Z3 is laughable. I struggle to come up with a word for the X5 without throwing up.

gratuitous pic of DS in bad colour

Tsk Tsk. No need to get bitchy. I didn't post a pic of a puke green 520i, did I?
Product of the century.

@BrianD3 & Ubu - Good one. The Odius seems to be inspired by the Pontiac Aztec, except it is even uglier.

There is a small hatchback going around with big bug eyes - not sure if its Daihatsu or Kia or whatever but it is one of the worst.
I also saw this Daihatsu which looks as if it came from a Mr. Magoo cartoon

Everytime this question is asked the Fiat mulitpla appears on the first page, and so it should

Luckily, someone thought to do something about it quick :



Oh, and could never stomach that (for some weird reason, always made me think of a squid):

Nissan Micra from 1992 onwards - the worst looking type of cars ever!!!

Looks even worse when you have muppets who put try and "soup" them up. Micra Sport anyone????

Total disaster, how people buy them is beyond me!

Should be taking off the road!!!




Ha ha ha!

I was going to mention the Micra, along with the Almera and to a lesser extent the new Primera but decided against it as there are plenty of Nissan drivers here and I couldnt be arsed reading all the posts disagreeing with my view!
