Ugly motor vehicles.

[RICHARD]

Since we had a thread about the car YOU wanted, I think that an ugly car/bike thread would be fun...



I was watching the tube when I saw a commercial about this bike. It's a 2007/8 Victory Vision, made by the Polaris company.

If that's their Vision of cycling, please poke my eyes out.

That is the kind of bike a person would buy to be bothered by the question, "WHAT is it?" as opposed to the comment, "Hey, nice bike".

There is a certain amount DISCOMFORT attached to riding a motorcycle.
Radios, heated seats, suits and handgrips are for sissies.


Of course. There is the added plus of being able to carry your kids or some egg salad sandwiches in the sidebags.Of course, you don't want to do that for a long ride, mayonaisse goes bad really quickly!

Oh no you don't, Richard. NOT gonna pick on the family car I grew up with, the one I learned to drive. We had a red Rambler station wagon with a white top, folks bought it when I was 5 years old. It was the neatest thing I'd EVER seen, especially once I had a learner's permit!

LOL, I drove an orange Pacer. The great pumpkin.

Beauty is in the eye of the holder of the permit!

KCD,

The Lambo looks like the bastard child of a Hummer, International Scout and one of the cartoon cars in the movie 'CARS'.
I guess you can tell when those cars were designed by knowing which drugs were popular at the time!

I think the Honda Element and the square boxy Scion are hideous. I drove a Yaris once and hated the control panel; everything was in the middle. Whazzup with that?

I had a scion as a loner car when my highlander was getting the paint treatment they push on you...anyway that was the funnest car I ever drove!

That paint treatment has turned out to be one of the best things I have ever had done to a car. My Highlander still looks new and shiny - and it's a 2002.

You want an ugly motor vehicle. Check out the Fiat Multipla.


Was listed as one of the worst cars of all time by Time. You would no believe how many of these disgusting things are on the streets here in Italy. The big blob under the windshield reminds me of a 'spare tire' many of us wish we didn't have. Blech

[kittycats_delight]

And how about this beauty? The Lamborghini LM002. Just gorgeous isn't it!!!

[lvpets2002]

Oh my Michelle is both of these beauty vehicles from Italy??

Sadly yes...these are both Italian cars. Scary I know but true!

I don't have any pictures of my first cars, just 'fond" memories. The ugliest was probably "Bill."

"Bill the Car" was a 1974 Maverick that was originally light blue, with a brown driver's side door and a black roof that was flaking off, and maroon primer on both rear fenders. Eventually, Dad found a can of paint that said "light blue" in the basement, turned out it was screaming sky blue!

When "Bill" was rearended one night, as I was asleep, There ended up pieces of sky-blue bondo all over the street, which I gave away as souvenirs.

When I was a teenager in the 60's, my dad bought an old car and this thing was such a rust bucket, as parts fell off, he'd replace them but they never matched. The hood was bright red, the fenders were different colors and so was the trunk. School busses didn't run where we lived, so my dad insisted on driving me to school. My maiden name is Rhome, so, of course, the kids made fun of that car and would yell "Here she comes in the Roman chariot!" They got a good laugh until the temperature dropped below zero and the snow came down and their parents didn't drive them to school. My dad offered them a ride w/me and that put an end to the snickers. To my face anyhow.

Whoa!

You weren't in the car asleep, were you?

I almost bought my BILs white Maverick. Glad I didn't...Bondo, you say?

Medusa,

Well, I guess you can't use the story about walking to school for miles in the snow?

No, my sister uses that one. She was married by the time I was born, except in her story, she walked uphill both ways.
