You reminded me to park this here.



Good effort - ugly though.

Beauty and efficiency aren't always related.

Apart from the problematic electric driveline, it's not among the ugliest cars ever made.

The grille looks like a nasty hungry fish, but aside from '56, '57 Corvettes, I just don't
remember any vertical grille that hits the mark of success!

The above car DOES remind me of my electric shaver!

Surprised that this hasn't been parked here already.

This



is a vehicle with a purpose. OK it has issues (below) but it has a purpose. However this



has only one purpose - to transport men with very small reproductive parts or indeed women married to men with small reproductive parts around.

(HUMM-Veee issue - in the late 80s / early 90s the HV was used as a guard vehicle for the US bases in the UK however it was so over large for the local roads that the local police suggested they should not be used - I remember reading that the US Army bought some more sensibly sized Land Rovers instead)

I fully realize that these are capable of good mpg., but I'm sure the handling
is suspect near its limit, and although it is so ugly that it is actually cute; I just thought it belonged here!
