Would you care to nominate any one in particular?


the '147' sadly, because it is a nice looking car spoiled by an offset number plate. I just like all things symmetric which the car is and then they plonk a number on as an after thought. So perhaps to your question, the car is not ugly, only after the addition of the plate, so ignore me Confused Laughing

and LR Defender, but then its not built for looks I hope.

In fact our Freely is not very pretty to look at, but then it does what it is supposed to Thumbs Up


good looks is not all curvey lines and trinkets... I think it also boild down to proportion and what just looks right I like the Defender (especially the 90) as I think it looks purposefull without being ugly a kind of girl next door look I guess you could say.

I do agree about the FL though - from the front its OK but then you get to the rear and its just not quite right..

Bit like the c class coupe, from the front it looks allright (as far as Benz go)

but then you get to the back and..... Oh dear Shocked

Sorry Boxer...but me and everyone on my uni course (Transport and Automotive design) agrees that there isn't a good looking Porsche! They have very fat arses for a start and silly lights. Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35

Those pillars work only with certain colours and tinted windows...which unfortunately aren't to everyone's taste!

I do like the back end on the whole though, it's quite subtle and inoffensive Mine: 2012 Golf GTI Edition 35
