Default NEW SCOOBY RANKS 38th MOST UGLY CAR

Go see Daily Telegraph!

The 100 ugliest cars: 40-21 - Telegraph


38 - Subaru Impreza

Previous-generation models were sometimes ruined by ludicrous spoilers specified by owners. This one comes pre-defaced by the factory.

Austin Maxi, my dad had one of those when he was a salesman for the local BL dealer, that brings back some memories, and my brother had a Marina, which turned out to be two cars welded together, a cut n shut jobbie. He found out when he had a head on collision at about 30-35, and the join in the roof cracked apart. Wonder where all the other classic BL cars come in the list, the Princess, the Allegro (All Aggro, as it was also known, thanks to Red Robbo and his mates).

I'm not sure the new Scooby is actually ugly, just "unfortunate looking", bland, boring, just like a Hyundai?

I don't think you're the only one. If you read the comments below the article, most people are saying the same thing.

I think there are some belters in the list too.

How aptly named

89 - Hyundai Pony



There are some weird ones in there The Tribeca is only 99th (should have been top 10) and then you've got stuff like the boxster, anglia etc in there that shouldn't be

I always thought that the spoilers were factory fitted, the one on my wagon was although it's not quite as in your face as the one on the STI saloons. Were these an optional extra?, because mine was on from brand new from the dealer!
