But I remember that girls used to try and get in the car when I stopped at the lights......

Faint sound of Curtiss Mayfield's music from 'Super Fly' ....
As for the worst car ever built, my vote goes to the russian Lada.

The Lada was a Russian built FIAT 124 known as the VAZ2102 in the Soviet, a bit more ground clearance and drum brakes on the rear being the main difference.
I imagine the toolkit was much needed out East of the Urals ....
Travant - East German car maybe? I think the bodywork was made of papiermache.

Trabant .... aka The Trabi .... not exactly papiermache but pretty damn close, a compressed fibre impregnated with a very nasty epoxy resin ....
REALLY UGLY CAR .... the Lamborghini Countach and all versions .... now that is one expensive example of how not too design a car .... let alone 'style' one.

Henry Brown – designer of the tiny Rodley car – designed the unorthodox shape by sitting atop a Villiers engine while an assistant drew a chalk outline around him.


i dunno that doesn't sound like the way i'd go about designing a car.. hehe
