I agree that the Rodius tops the list.. I can't comment on the Chrysler 300 as I have one myself and quite like it (not as much as my ZTT)

This:


looks like a small dog's Richard III left on a pavement and this:



looks like two teams designed the same car differently and seeing as neither could lose (how PC) they smashed both designs together.

This:

is a "What the **** were they drinking last night?" design, as for these



I think I know what they were trying to achieve but ended up with a bathtub on wheels that looks a bit 'educationally challenged' from the front....

I'm with you on this! Close neighbour's got one of the latest Audi A4 offerings and I'm sure there's a deliberate attempt to make it plain. Flat panels, bland wheel arches, plain window seals, basic door handles etc and this is a sports model. Perhaps I'm missing something but not for me.

My older has just bought a Citroen Picasso, even my 13 year old niece said it was ugly.

How about the old Ford Corsair?

He he, I bought one of these brand new in 2001 on a y plate, I was only 20. Cost me 7500 and basic it definately was, didn't even have central locking. However it did have body coloured bumpers and a rear spoiler thankfully.

It looks rather like it's been left facing into a strong wind for a bit too long.
