Maybach. Looks like what the Chinese would have styled if they produced their own version of the Mercedes-Benz S-class.

Any Mustang from 1974 to about 2003 didn't deserve to be called Mustangs.

I still remember the marketing paperwork saying it could go 100,000km without a major service or something like that.

Citreons trying to impersonate Sandmans.

In the 80s I would get Modern Motor, Motor Manual and Wheels.
One off the Magazines in the reader contribution section there was a picture of an Old Fiat Truck with NSW personalised plates "FUGLY". I had to agree with the owner. |

Get out of the way Poor People, I am off on my trip to Cape York in my Bentley Bentayga.
Now where can I find a Bull Bar and a Roof Top Tent for this thing?

Adding to that X6 above, may I present the BMW 5-Series GT.
The GT was the answer to a question no one asked. It was supposed to blend the size and space of a 5-Series sedan with the flexibility of a lift back hatch and some X5 style ride height. The result was badly proportioned, ugly mess. Apparently it sold well in China, justifying a new generation now called the 6-Series GT.

I actually like heroic oddness, but for ordinary everyday ugliness I nominate the second and third generation Honda Jazz; tiny windows set in an over-styled mess of conflicting lines trying hard not to look like a fat lump.

Foxbody is an interesting departure from the formula, its a tough looking little car though. |

Actually I don't mind the AMC Gremlin especially in its X -Pack disk braked 304 V8 form or better one of the 20 odd build with the 401 V8 (the Randall 401-XR) and there were much uglier AMC vehicles e.g the Pacer:

The Pacer's sort of cute, and I love the big windows, it's the blood-and-custard two-tone paint and fake wood paneling here that ruins it.
