(a) a while back the British car list chose the Daimlier SP250,
     limiting it to British cars. Flawed styling, but I'm not sure I
     agree to 'ugly'.
(b) how about '61 & '62 Plymouths and Dodges? There ain't a
     decent looker in the whole line-up.
(c) fortunately, no Sunbeams qualify, but Rootes does have a
      contender in the 60's Super Minx.
(d) Renault 4. Also 8. Also 12. Sh*t, any French car since the demise
      of Facel.
(e) Nissan Altima. Didn't the designer even _have_ a straightedge?
(f) Alfa Milano. Bent down at front, up at rear; appeared pre-wrecked
     for you. How convenient!
(g) Late 70's (?) bustle-back Caddy Seville.
(h) Late-model "fat lip" Buick Skylark.
(i) VW 411
(j) Early 70's Subarus. All of them.

Thanks, Phil. Mebbe this will wake everybody up, or
at least until Tiger-related posts start up again. Hey,
at least these cars make our 'Beams look better!
