I quite like the Multipla, in a function over form, out the other side of ugly into quite cool really, the facelift did not improve it

Agree, rather like the pre-facelift car because it does what it needs to - remember the dis-embodied child's head?

The Red Warrior

So many bits of that look good on their own. But together...ewww.

I think it?s the front bumper/air dam and lights that are spoiling it.

Actually, seen from any angle they are so  hideous my eyes hurt
Škoda Fabia 1.0 TSI Race Blue


McDoof

How is that the same vehicle?
It looks like they crossed a fox body mustang with an old soarer, then added some BMW M Coupe into the mix....

McDoof

I guess the the fact, that it is a platform share with the new Z4 has something to do with that.
