In no order:

BMW 1 series (F20) Ugly headlights - and weird proportions
BMW 5 series (E60) Bangle bungle
BMW 5 series GT (F07) Pointless if you ask me...
BMW 7 series (E65) More Bangle bungle

Fiat Multipla is definitely there - but very practical!

Audi A1

Honda Brio - looks like Citroen C1 gone wrong at the back...

Most of the chinese bakkies - though GWM is trying hard!

All Mahindra's except for the new XUV500

Mini Countryman

Nissan Juke

Current Subaru Legacy and previous generation Tribeca - they lost the plot with those two!

These are cars that I regard as ugly. Their predecessors were better looking. And no I'm not a BMW hater - they have made some pretty cars and I am even a fan of the old Z3-based M Coupe which a lot of people hated - I found it aggressive and well proportioned and very eager looking.

The E60 is damn pretty and was actually designed by David Arcangeli.

I consider myself corrected on the designer for sure - it isn't bad from this angle with those rims and that kit... The Hamann kit looked very smart.

But the back end didn't do it for me:

The E39 was a looker - especially the M5.

Honorable mention to Nissan Juke, Rogue, Mirano for having overly large "bums".

The E60 was actually one if my favourite designed sedans from BMW.

Damn, I'm drooling over that E60's rear end.

Different tastes I guess.

Well I used to have an E30 so... I'm a bit old fashioned maybe.

Handsdown the ugliest car ever produced in my opinion is the Fiat Multipla. Those frog lights and square shape... I can't understand who would buy something like that
