For me it's not ugly: Just faceless and bland.

Did the designer just drop a cartoon-style lead weight on a classic MG rather than make a drawing?

The last person in the world you would want to have contributing information to a website about cars basically.

Maybe not: ekhatch.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/oaktec-honda-insight-rally-car.jpg

AFAIK neither have ever entered series production.

There has been little more than a few prototypes of both.

They sold the Spyker branch of the firm to a company based in the UK earlier this year.

The rear ruins it for me...

Indeed and the US is a market where they do well.

Their focus on hybrids rather than diesels doesn't really cut it in Europe where the sweet spot in the prestige car market is for four cylinder sub £30K diesels. The only car they have in that range is the IS and that product is not competitive compared to the German cars.

Yes.

The entire 1980s summed up in one object.

Bah! Mon aéroglisseur est plein d'anguilles.

Yes: imcdb.org/vehicle_383632-Rover-Streetwise-2003.html

There was also an LPG version of the 1.6 petrol.

We have it in the UK.

For £300 more you can get the one with 110hp.

Looks a lot like a Ssangyong Rexton.

Any relation?

Same company that made the bikes?

Nice!

Based on a Suzuki Jimny.

Seems uncatchable.

For Webber and Vettel to be that fast without KERS is unbelievable.

Based on the Lotus Europa S.

Yes.

A question to the mods:

If I am uploading a car with it's two different bodystyles can I use the same interior picture on both pages? The interior picture is just a shot of the dash so it is not obvious if it is the hatch or the sedan.

This I like.

Nice.

I'd buy one if I could afford the insurance.

Great cars... Nice to drive and bombproof reliability.

I *think* unveilled at 1998 Birmingham/British Motor Show though it was known off before hand.

F. Barthez?

As in the ex-Man United goalie?

Concept previewing next Ford Kuga

We had this as the Amica.

Going to be confusing with the two 'Lotus' cars racing this season.
