Ladies and gentlemen; may I also throw the Nissan S-Cargo into the fold.
Surely this car design began life as a joke? Or was it a homage to a kids show?

The Fiat Multipla may not have looked pretty but boy was it a practical car.
Seated 6 fully grown men in comfort,very economical and reliable.
A company I ran some time ago had a Multipla from new to take and collect drivers after delivering or collecting fleet commercial vehicles,did 200.000 miles with no problem, It finally died when someone tried to drive it through 3 ft of water. |

Fiat 500xl.
Doesn't know if it's coming or going.
Also the whole point of a fiat 500 is that it's a super mini not something the size of a London cab.
I have been unfortunate enough to drive one and it's pants the worst headlights ever, honestly I would have seen the road better if I'd held up a candle whilst driving. |

Agree totally.
Series 1 & 2 were Discovery's.
Series 3 was when the rot set in...described by a L/R salesman, that I knew fairly well, to me as....front end of a Range Rover, mid section of a Discovery, back end of a Transit! Not far wrong either! |

Totally agree on the Scorpio. Such a shame as otherwise a great car. The back end wasn't that bad though.
Funny thing is though, that around that time, I think Mercedes went for a similar approach with large round headlamps though they somehow managed to pull it off. |

It's a matter of economics
Invariably, badly designed and poorly manufactured cars are very cheap ones; maufacturers cannot be overly concerned by the aesthetics of a vehicle when the profit margins are wafer thin.
Expensive cars generally look more pleasing to the eye, because they can be.
The vehicle that has been voted the worst looking car, in the US, was the AMC Pacer, built by the now defunct, and for a reason, American Motors Corporation.
There are loads of British examples, from an era when the UK car industry was on its last legs before being swallowed up by foreign, mostly Asian, competitors.
Mismanagement lies at the core of the demise of most businesses and industries. |

"Wartburg knight , as ugly as it sounds ! "
Bloody hell! I'd almost forgotten that one.
Made in East Germany with a two stroke engine and some kind of freewheeling device so you couldn't use engine braking.
Quite quick off the mark in a straight line but were really awful in every other way.
Other notable ones from that era were the NSU RO80 quite futuristic in design but hamstrung with a totally useless rotary engine. And who remembers "Moskvitch" predated Lada as the first Russin built car imported into the UK.
Turkey of Turkeys though came from over the pond.
The Ford Edsel which very nearly bankrupted the company back in the 60's
Strangely enough the few examples that are left are now worth a bloody fortune. |

Just thinking back to my early days in the car trade in the 70's. There was a lot of shit knocking about then.
Another one that springs to mind was the Alfasud. That just had to be the number one rust bucket ever, and anything Lancia.
Oh! And don't forget the early Nissans (Datsun's as they were known then) The early Bluebirds just fell to bits, but at least they were reliable. The Cherry Europe also fell to bits but the engine was shit as well.
The British motor industry didn't exactly cover itself in glory in those days but we weren't the only ones. |

Out of interest there are currently 787 Ferrari cars listed for sale on Auto Trader, cannot imagine that Ferrari have been approached for permission to sell any of them. |

"Will say, I have to agree on the E-Type too.
Looks like somebody stood a UFO onto an attempt at a flying carpet.
Hideous, like 99.99% of all so called "classic" cars.
Modernists don't know what 'classic' or style means .. old cars are incredibly popular these days, so much so that the most watched programme on Freeview is bangers and cash ... "

"Fiat 500XL
The whole point of a Fiat 500 is it is a small car, and yet there is an SUV version of it.
Ditto the BMW Mini. The point of the Mini was being mini. It’s in the name. The BMW Minis are huge."
The first gen BMW Minis were lovely (and small), since then they seem to be slowly turning into Fiat 500s |

Lancia cars and FIAT cars were rust buckets with very poor quality steel and zero rustproofing, aside from the poor quality paint, because they were cheap and only meant to last a short time, because of the manufacturers' policy of planned obsolescence; the rust bucket would be replaced by another rust bucket, on finance.
Henry Ford, the original Henry, said that if people actually caught onto how money worked there would be a revolution, which he ensured did not happen in his factories in Dearborn Detroit, Michigan through the use of armed guards,the Pinkerton's, who shot many strikers!
I actually stayed in Henry Ford's house that is now an hotel, opposite the first Ford factory in Detroit, now known as the rust belt.
The Japanese were laughed at in the 1950s, but they now control the world car market because of their Kaizen management system; continuous improvement especially rustproofing. |

Good ones are shooting up in value and look fantastic
I can still remember them racing in the BTCC in the early 90’s due to a casual throwaway comment. IIRC, it was Rickard Rydell who was approached by Volvo, about joining the series. He joked he would win with their most popular model- which turned out to be the 850 estate…which is how the T5R was apparently born (and I think the start of the R-design line used since). |

Absolutely spot on
And the T5 went on to be used by most of Europe police forces
I got chased Down by 1 on the m1
Was another 10 years before o could afford to buy and insure a T5R
Wish I still owned it tbh worth upwards of 10k and gaining now
Another fact the early focus st used the same engine but with a 4 bar turbo huh who would of thought it Ford using a 20+ year old design for the proformance range |

There's no such thing as a shitty car other the ones that burn a hole in your pocket due to constantly breaking down & in need of repair. For if a vehicle can get you and your passengers comfortably & safely to location then it's all good. Rest is just for show-off/hobby...! |

A friend of mine bought an ex Police T5 Estate and drove it for a few years . He now has a Skoda Octavia VRS Estate and says the performance matches that of the Volvo. It is interesting see howm many Police forces are now running the Skoda VRS Estates. |

Except for the bit about the shit engine. The A series was a pretty decent lump in comparison to some of the others designed round the late 50’s/ early 60’s- not many have a production span of almost 40 years. I modified a 1300 unit to go in my mini, medium lift race cam, twin SU’s, ported head with seated valves and triple branch manifold to a drainpipe exhaust- I could also remove an A Series engine, work on something and have it back in on the same day.
So, In a car weighing not much north of half a tonne, with those mods, it squashed you back in the seats and started every time. Had a friend who fitted a modified Metro Turbo unit in his stripped mini, that pissed on every hot hatch in the area.
Like most cars, reliability was also mainly down to how well you looked after it. Don’t knock the little block, still going strong in thousands of car’s worldwide |
