Let's face it, F1 car liveries are pretty dull these days, but there have been a few teams over the years that have tried to be different, with varying degrees of success. My personal favourites were the yellow Jordans in the B&H era, and biggest stinkers were the BAR 555/Lucky Strikes messes.

Anyone else got any faves from over the years?

It was seeing a photo of a JPS Lotus that got me interested in F1.

I always think this was one of the worst. A classic case of loading the stickers into a canon and firing it at the car.

Agreed, one of the best looking cars with one of the best liveries for a long time.

The Pacific looked pretty horrid...

JPS Lotus, Gold Leaf Lots, Jordan 191, Jordan Benson and Hedges logo, Eagle Weslake, stewart f1, are amongst my favorites....also the BAR 555/lucky strike liveries...If they were allowed to keep 1 brand per car they looked amazing..

Yuck - ugly livery on ugly cars.

The marketing dude that signed that off should have been shot.

I always found Alain Prost and his little legs amusing. Instantly recognisable Williams livery.

Crikey, talk about firing stickers out of a cannon, looks like Honda tried to nail random pieces of carbon fibre to it as well. Beastly looking thing.

That half n half BAR was fairly rank.

This has to be my favourite because as a 13 year old boy I saw it being built in the workshop and my first experience of Formula 1.My father was the financial director of WD & HO Wills that authorised the cost of running the two car team with sponsorship of £1 million.

Totally agree.

I really hate that livery. Not what i expected from Williams.
