Aztek definitely wins the prize for fugliness.  And it ain't just the nose that's bad, that thing is an eyesore from every angle.

Ford Scorpio.... the car where you can land a F-14 on its boot (trunk!)



Renault Megane.... for such a modern car, the stylist must have been blind...


Austin Allegro... say no more!  Considering Allegro means fast it never lived up to its reputation!  My sister used to have a ***** green coloured one, I was so embarrassed to be seen in it!


Even uglier as an Estate...


Even more ugly as the Vanden Plas Allegro - I guess they thought putting a grill on made it classy... yeah, right!


Talbot Samba - When I first passed my driving test I used to borrow my Mothers 'Samba'.  Okay, it had wheels, which perhaps was the only good thing about it!  Going round the simplest of corners often meant going up on two wheels.

"What's your most horrid car? "

What isn't?

Not many cars are good looking anymore.  


My Buick is sort of portly-looking.   At least it has whitewalls and a hood ornament and a bit of chrome though, which instantly makes it better looking than 99% of cars on the road.    It would actually look good if it was black, but being brown it just looks a bit like it needs to call weight watchers.   Yes, I can poke fun at my own vehicle, too!


I especially hate any car which has a fart can tailpipe, because they not only look stupid, they also sound stupid--thus doubling the stupidity factor.   Are weed-eaters supposed to sound powerful nowdays?

Since I have dual exhausts (the real kind, not two pipes out of one muffler), would I get stereo weed-eating effects if I were to install fart cans on the Buick?   Would that make me a ricer god?

  I was doing security work for a company that  I was putting a little over a hundred miles a day to and from work. I had a double cab GMC at the time that would automaticaly stop at every gas station. I decided to buy something cheap , with good gas mileage to drive to and from.
  I bought one of these little gems brand new for $4995.00. When I sold it I had put just a little over 350,000 miles on it. The time I had it I replaced the battery twice and a headlight twice. Other than that I had spent nothing on maintenance. I never even replaced the timing belt. If someone could promise me that kind of service from an auto nowadays I would buy two of them.


The site that I pulled that pick from had quite a loyal following of Festiva enthusiasts.  The stock ones looked like death traps.  I'd never own one.  For a small hatchback, I think the old VW GTI's win hands-down on styling and racy appearance.  



The new Ford Focus SVT cars aren't bad, either.

Boxes on wheels are so functional they can mysteriously transcend ugly, but the Pontiac Aztek ... it may be the all-time Ugliest Vehicle based on its popularity so far in many ugly vehicle polls.

For me, I think that one can't go lower than this:
Fiat MULTIPLA


Fiat got booted out of the US market about 25 years ago, for good reason.

Wasn't it called "Fiesta" in Europe? Or is Fiesta a different car?

My cousin in Chernovtsy (Ukraine) have bought 2 used Fiestas for $400, used one for spare parts. It's running wuite good. You have to understand that Chernovtsy is an old Austro-Hungarian city (30km from Ukraine-Romanian border now) with brick (cobblestone) pavements. I didn't see any car there that had shock-absorbers, they get killed in a matter of days on brick (cube) roads...

Definitely not called a Fiesta in Europe.  It looks like a Mazda 121 and the more recent Kia Pride (which uses the 121 bodyshell).
