Following the news that Spyker has been bought out and is now British

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?f=57&...

am I the only one who thinks that they are an utter abortion of a car?

I really dont see what the fuss is about. The quality may be top notch but to me the styling is an utter mess. It looks like an MGF that has been done up by the Max Power Brigade.





To me all of the proportions just look wrong. The roofline is way too high and the lambo doors on the Aileron look like bad after market jobs.

I hope they do well under the new ownership but if they put as much time and effort into the exterior styling as they did with the interior they could make something as special and exquisite as a Pagani but without the £1M+ price tag.

Fugly car.

I'd agree the original C8/C12 look is ugly, but I think the Aileron is a stunning looking thing. The headlights make all the difference in the world to me.

I personally think the new Huayra is godawful to look at, especially after the Zonda.

This personally has potential to be the ugliest supercar.

I like Spykers especially the Laviolette (or what ever its called) Maybe I have no taste in cars? Does my current garage support this lack of taste?

The Spyker range is hideous. They look like they have been styled by Stevie Wonder.

I think this looks good. There have been many supercars that are uglier

Agreed, I would not call it out and out ugly, but it is certainly not a looker.

I think the Mosler Consulier might win. It was staggeringly quick and a very competent car, but it was also a fright pig...............

I'm not sure whether it's fair to say these are ugly... or just a bit 80s, but I'd like to contribute Vector none the less.
