Honda are lost in the woods at the moment. I hope the F1 bread crumb trail leads them back.

the final version of the Granada Scorpio was a real pig and killed off years of tradition of sales directors / MD's ordering a Granada Ghia as their company motor.

This one on Ebay is/was the MD of Turbo Technics personal car and have to say despite its dreadfull front look (like a startled toad) I am tempted to bid for it, a 350 bhp 4wd sleeper, would make a great tow car!

I may be bias but there's a damned sight worse than this about and on this thread. Nissan Puke? Bangle era BMWs? Renault Megane?

Has the Honda HRV been mentioned yet? Ok, it's not quite up there with the Aztec, but it is a major eyesore.

Apart from trying to look like an offroad car, don't see much wrong with that Honda? Much much worse out there IMO.

My current candidate, even beating the X6: Audi SQ5. Good engineers and excellent styling department team up to create a lowered SUV for the nouvelle richesse. *The* shopping car for the Oligarch's wife. What an offending piece of metal and such a waste of resources -- materials and devolopment:

I'd happily go along with that. I'd happily nominate the R8 which I think is a butt ugly thing with those stupid panels on the side.

It's a cardinal sin to not like Audis here though, since almost everyone else has a permanent boner over them.

That Audi instantly made me think of this. Probably about as slow and cumbersome as well, and will undoubtedly have a diesel like the lorry.

This Hyundai was pretty hideous (a shame because it looked pretty good pre-facelift)

I disagree, I think the Fiat Coupe is a great looking car.

I HATE HATE HATE the Mercedes GLK. It's just plan ugly from every single angle. Because it's also a pretty much pointless and nothing but status car I hate it even more.




A lot of horrible designs out there, I can't truly, honestly not understand why they can't make those things more beautiful before release! If you're going to design something in the first place, design something nice!

Wonder how blind the Aztek development panel was, what an automotive joke.

I find it pretty hideous. The bizarre change between fairly soft rounded styling at the front to hard edged boxiness at the rear, the really tall front bumper with pretty much nothing underneath it, the massive swage line that could have been taken from an Austin Maestro etc...etc...

That said the Chinese market Honda Crider takes things to a new, and unwelcome level. With the amount of unnecessary and randomly placed swage lines I reckon it could have been styled on the Merc CLA.
