    Ugliest car ever made. Whomever designed that, sat back and thought "yep, I nailed it" should never be allowed to design so much as a milk carton.

    I don't think it's the ugliest but then beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
    I suppose it's main claim to fame is that it is still doing the business after 20 years.
    Handsome is as handsome does.

    I will never forget the Autocar when it was spotted testing. Heartbreaking considering what went before and what Ford were doing with the Focus. The facelifted version was worse though.

    And nothing tops the Ssangyong Rodius for ugly.

    And that's saying something given my grá for the Mark 1 Multipla.

    Don't have an image as I was driving at the time, but I overtook a 1999 Fiat Fiorino taxi this evening. It had a few different shades of blue and a good plume of black smoke.

    If it was my car I'd take that as a great complement!! but, yeah I know what you mean.. it can be a hit and miss as to reaction of owners.
