BMW 2 series.

Hateful looking thing.

I totally agree but presumably you knew it existed to consider it hateful looking?

The 2 series is fine, it's a good-looking car; the 2 series Gran Tourer and Active Tourer are pig ugly.

Except that you do know it existed. You are just the only person on the whole of PH who doesn't know what it actually is.

How do Ford not only get this model wrong, to start with (Fiat 500 nails it) but then makes it even worse. who, in their right mind, would buy that?
OK, I apprecaite that cars like the Hyundai i10, Kia Picanto and Suzuki Celerio aren't exactly Bertone designs but hell, that's unpleasant.

Comes as a 4dr in some countries as well.

I think it's sole purpose is to get people to buy a Fiesta.

Until 10 minutes ago i didn't know you could get the Lotus Exige as a Roadster :P

Nope. Exige has the 350bhp supercharged V6 that used to be in the Evora S. Elise still uses a 4 cylinder.

Because it's a trim level. Not a separate car.

I saw one yesterday in the Vignale grey. Looked very good.

There were 2 versions, the Ford Bantam from South Africa:

I love the way they decided to add a side step for load bed access.

Makes it almost identical to the F150

I didn't know about the Panda van until I saw this. Quite cool.

The new Ford Ka http://www.ford.co.uk/Cars/ka-plushttp://www.ford....

Huh; who knew? (Looks nasty.)

What have they done to it? Looks awful, a real bland box. As said, looks like it's been designed to make people buy a Fiesta instead.

I think it looks OK in a Ford sort of way

Someone needs to build a time machine, it's our only chance.

It just looks 'like a Ford' I think. Pretty nondescript, like most mass market cars.

Definitely not a nice looking car but not offensive. Apart from the Mustang, I can't think of a particularly nice looking car in the Ford range
ETA: The new Kuga looks pretty good

It's not a KA though - Its a KA+.. looks like a Matiz all over again. And the A Class MPV. And don't forget the Yaris Verso! What about the 1007?
