    Is that why they only sell them with heavily tinted windows? :D

    The old multipla is really really cool...This new one is horrendous looking but it is the absolutely perfect coupe for anyone who suffers from Claustrophobia. The windows are huge and being on the inside of it is very comfortable and different than any other car.

    If it hasn't already been mentioned, the Porsche Panamera is just butt ugly. Really, if the identical car, every detail, was by say Ford, doubt many would by the car.

    I think the 2CV's utility, practicality and durability make it a gorgeous piece of engineering.

    You might not want to see it every day, but it is work appreciating.

    I can't believe that is real - I think we have a winner.

    They don't photograph well, but I think they look quite nice in the real world. However, I do agree that Porsche's engineering and their history of it really moves that car off the dealer's lots.

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    I love the Panamera...I mean, for that kind of money I can buy 2 F456 cars but it is quite nice.

    I am surprised that no one has posted a picture of Enzo Stuarti's "Sonata". A truly hideous design based on a Lamborghini Miura.

    Hey, someone ought to post a picture of the latest V12 Lambo (Supposidore???). I saw one in the corner of my eye the other day. It was black. It made me think of a mechanical cockroach from a sifi movie.

    john

    PS. After you've fixed your eyes on the cars in posts 184, 185 and 186, the Pinto actually looks nice.

    The problem with the SLR is it didn't start out ugly... Not the prettiest, but that's been destroyed... Why would you do that?

    How did the Rambler Nash manage to drive around corners? The front wheel arches are sealed up, so presumably it hasn't much of a turning circle.

    All the best,
    Andrew.
