All the news from MotoringFile to get you guys caught up, including our take on how the F56 is shaping up (spoiler: we are liking it). We get a little sidetracked talking about the Countryman too, as you would expect, but not in the way you would expect. Plus, a little light hearted ribbing about an “award” that the Countryman received.
Moving on to the content portion of the show, we present the ugliest cars of the last 20 years. I recommend listening to this with Google Image search at the ready and possibly a cocktail. It’s good stuff! And if you are interested in my thoughts about the 2013 Ford Fusion, you can read all about it at dbmini.us.
Have a safe Fourth of July gang! Don’t loose any fingers or catch anything on fire that shouldn’t have been on fire in the first place!

Surprised no early Hyundai models were mentioned or every Saturn except the Sky I also would have included a Daewoo but for the most part a lot of boring GM vehicles they apparently know better than anyone else how to kill a once successful car model.
Thanks for stopping by Nathan!
Personally, the korean automakers build a car that I don’t mind looking at. The others that we mentioned, especially the Murano Convertible and Fiat 500XL (and all the rest), aren’t that hot. 😀
Korean cars have come a long way but cars like the first gen Tiburon where truly ugly.
A funny thought occurred to me while listening to this show. It’s a combination of Todd’s mentioning how he regularly hears people in the dealer showroom ask if the Countryman comes as a convertible, and the discussion of PT Cruiser and Murano convertibles in the fugly car contest:
Imagine a Paceman Convertible.
