    Citroen should enter this game : What do you think of the Axel of the early 80s ?

    Now Citroen design has evolved in a good way (one of their designer was hired years ago by ... Ferrari).

    If you add its design + fuel consumption of this car, I think we have the poleman here !

    Edsals were commonly referred to as a Mercury sucking a lemon

    Here is one;1968 Mohs Ostentatienne Opera Sedan, as if the Safari car wasn't bad enough.

    I like the Naked Lunch comparison! I bet that is the sort of car Cronenberg would come up with.

    I would not call it pretty, but definitely not ugly either.

    Nearly 150 posts and nobody came up with THIS until now?! I must say that until I remembered this baby, I thought John had nailed it with the very first post...

    We just bought a used Element, and yes it is ugly.

    And what about this Renault ?

    The funny story on that ugly car is that the sell volumes went down very fast after the official commercial named it the "pear", as you can see on the photo...

    Come on, the R 14 was not that ugly.
    Compared to the Megane of today it was almost beautiful.
