'Successor'
(of the Maxi) is probably the wrong word to describe this monster
Apparently it was based on a Maxi that took a wrong turning into a
narrow alley and put ugly dents down both sides... Together with the
Montego, the mould should definitely have been broken (before production
started) |
Aparrently
there's some garage out in Herefordshire that's still putting them
together for folks to buy (they were rejected from some eastern European
country) |

Do
you scuzzy-toothed brits need a reason? It looked like a jellybean,
had but one door,and in an accident, the first thing to shatter was

It's
a citroen... Oh yes, too high, too narrow, too ugly, too slow... now
I'm not expecting it to be an Astramax but it's a car sized van so
surely it should have some visual credibility and perform like a porsche.

The
model with the big square headlamps, such a disappointment after the
E type. Not in the same league as the Avenger Tiger though, you've
gotta find a picture of one of those |
I
wish I could find one |

I
am from America and I think Chrysler has caused a lot of the negative
feelings towards American cars. Most of their new cars, New Yorker,
300M, Sebring, all look like lumbering cockroaches with huge gaping
grills and gargatuan headlights. Be grateful none of them have made
it across the pond |
I
once owned a car made by the Chrysler Corp myself... |

Good
site, you just need to brush up on your car knowledge. I mean, even
having the word 'Lamborghini Miura' anywhere near this page is totally
sacrilegious. Other than that, add the VW Golf (Mk 2-4) and I'll be
happy |
The
Lambo was nominated by somebody else - not me. I don't think Golfs
are ugly - just a bit dull. |

Pah
- I spit on your choices :-) As A BX owning DS fan I cannot agree
with your choices. You obviously have NO knowledge of the massive
technological advances that the DS gave the world. The DS had a crossflow
engine some 30 years before Ford. It had disc brakes. Thanks to the
DS we have radial tyres. I do agree about the Austin Aggro and and
2CV though |
Like
many people you've missed the point - I *don't care* about the car's
technology - just its looks! |

What
did Lamborghini think they were doing, I think they should stick to
sports cars and tractors, because this was obviously designed in a
drunken fit, as it is a cross between the two of them. Taking the
sports car engine and plonking it in a tractor/land rover body was
never going to work. |

What
an abismal looking car! Not only is it totally ugly from every angle
but it is also made of poo, cheap and nasty poo at that! What was
the advertising slogan they used for its launch 'Designed by computer,
buit by robots driven by you' or should that be driven by a moron?!
Definately the abismal epitmy of motoring and certainly in my view
the ugliest car to ever set its wheels on a british road |
and
worthy of inclusion - a shame that they've all rusted away so I can't
get a photo of one. |

What
is this car, a squidgy bulb on wheels or something!. The coupe and
convertible are mega ugly, especially with rear lights that look like
eyes about to pop out at you.The hatchback looks sooo boring that
you can blink and see nothing while looking at it. |
'nuff
said. |

S.Stevenson
|
Who
the heck did Morris think they were, keeping that hideous old grannymobile
in production for 23 years. It was an old heap, even when new. And
yet, it competed for sales against the Ford Escort. What was issigonis
thinking when designing the minor- an ugly aunt! |
I
guess you didn't like it then. |

UUgh,
that so called mk3 version was an eyesore, especially when old Lord

colours like limeflower green and "S**t" brown. |

Sorry,
sorry to all of you. I respect your sincere efforts, most of which
are pretty close, but nothing, sorry NOTHING, could surpass these
horrific conveyances of the 1970's. They are clearly the result of
the work of Japanese sararymen who would do anything just anything
not to have to go home to the wife |

I
have no idea if this is a car or not, but it was certainly useful
as a motorised wheelbarrow. You should get one Phil |
You
can sell me yours when you're finished with it in Vancouver. |

Made
from old bathtubs.A Martian mini.Clearly, designed by Jules Verne's
three year old son. Jules, himself,must have designed it's siblings,
the NSU 1000 and the even uglier NSU 1200.Forget the paper bag on
your head, believe me, you'd need to put one on any one of these horrors
before accepting a ride. Confession, my dad had one.Bloody embarrassing.He
eventually sold it and came home with a new car - a powder blue Citroen
Ami !!! Gag, gag... Time to leave home. |

This
must be the most ugly automobile to have ever been driven in Britain.It
is unlikely any photographs were ever taken of this hideous beast.It
must have been designed with the intention of making the rest of the
horrible Citroen range at that time look less disgusting.Yes, my dad
had one! |
Poor
chap. |

I
agree American cars are very ugly. Shawnie thinks British are imperfect.
Ive seen Jerry Springer and it is evident to me that Americans are
far from being the master race. The average American could feed Ethiopia
for a year on their excess fat Im surprised Americans can even fit
in cars |
Hey
- some of my best friends are Americans. |

I
am ashamed to say that I drove 2(!!!) 652cc versions- they are exceptionally
fast as you may well imagine. One was blue with silver spots and a
brown bonnet- this actually improved the appearance of the car. HIDEOUS.
At least my friends are starting to talk to me again 2 years after
the car was crushed |
If
you thought they were hideous, then why did you buy the second one? |

It's foul and putrid and disgusting, and totally grotesque! Everytime

very
funny site,love your sense of humour .thank god we are far enough
away from you lunatics who accepted these cars in the first place
that we never got them.what do these cars want? ,who can the people
turn to who bought them,how would you feel if you knew somebody with
one? if you slept with someone who owned one and you woke up with
them lying on your arm, you would rather chew your arm off than wake
them up-are you with me? |
Errr..
I think you've drunk too much Fosters. |

The
Mercedes-designed smart is surely the worst car designers came up
with in the last 2 years. No wonder it's selling so bad that production
will be cancelled soon. It's not only a plastic bag with the charme
of an Bosch household application but even has a speed limiter which
doesn't enable it to drive faster than 130 km/h! |
If
I get a photo of one it'll be in the next update. |

Rachel
|
I
have still yet to see any Volvo with any redeeming features. Ugly
square cars driven by ugly square people, usually with several early
70's cushions and blankets blocking the rear window (or hiding the
fact that there are over a dozen passengers in the car). Let's face
it, anyone who buys a car for the fact that the headlights stay on
automatically day or night is an arsehole. |
I
agree |

The
ugliest british car of all time. So ugly they couldn't sell any and
it was axed after 3 years. Almost forgotten about, like a larger landcrab
with four head lights. Most were killed on the banger track. |
Can't
say I know it. |

Nominated! |
Jim

First
impression when visiting UK: Cute, zippy cars...need more like these
in US. In country a bit: Hmm...acutally quite slow; questionable aesthetics;
legroom AND headroom in one car must be a mutually exclusive idea.
Final prognosis upon return home: US cars have "sameness", granted,
but also have room for folks over 5'5", and real by-God V8 power.
To each their own, my friend! |
I'm
afraid Jim that we don't have room on our narrow roads for US - sized
cars, plus our fuel is too expensive to run V8 power. |

To
the bumcheddar who reckons the Renault 11 is the ugliest car, I have
three of them and if I see you when driving one of them, I'll run
you over with it. |
I'm
afraid that I think that the Renault 11 is uglier than the Fiesta.

This
one seems to combine the worst elements of swoopy curves AND blocky
angles in one hideous package. Or maybe its just my "American sensibilities"...
yes, I own a chromed V8 luxobarge - a '73 Cadillac - and I think it's
beeeautiful |

when are you having your frontal lobotomy? |
