I was never a fan of the XK8 in the styling dept either.
Bug eye scoob, plus all production and prototpye scoobs with the "Alfa" copied grill and oversized scoops, wings and other stick on bits. (I should mention the EVO too then )
New shape Nissan Micra
Peugeot 407 and 307 facelifts.
Late 90's Fiesta/Mazda 121 (the car they facelifted in the style of the Scorpio ) and all "rounded" attempts at the MK6 Escort (Mk5 with all the edges taken off, oh and that horrible oval grill facelift of the mk5...leave it alone, it looked good at it was ).
4 door Skyline.
Morgan Aero 8
Anything Maylasian/Korean/Chinese

I reckon that the Scorpio has matured quite well and is a canny secondhand buy for a bit of cheap space and luxury.
It's ironic that on a forum dedicated to what has been one of the most consistently ugly cars over the last ten years, we should be pointing the ugly stick at a bunch of other cars.

They say there's a website for everything.
They must be right

Subaru : Impreza 2001 ModelNever the prettiest of cars from the outset, Subaru decided to up the ante in 2001 by adding the same sort of hopeless googly-eyed headlamps that failed so spectacularly on the Toyota Corolla. Unsurprisingly, a year or two later the company replaced the front with one less likely to scare small children, much to the disappointment of the aftermarket custom headlamp suppliers.
