Best (very best on top):

1. Newest Scirocco (around 1985-87 models)
2. Eos (new convertible sports car)
3. A5 Golf (Rabbit in USA) and GTI
4. A4 GTI and R32 and Golf
5. A4 Jetta (Bora here in Canada)

19. Eurovan (newest bus)
20. Lupo and new Fox hatchback (tie)

Worst (from ugliest to less ugly but all here are still relatively ugly):

5. VW Transporter crew cab pickup truck (some put this at the top of the
ugly list)

This really cannot be called a VW, but the ebay ad says it is titled
as a 66 VW. Click on link.

Still think it's a major step down from the A4 Golf in looks. So
generic.. and a big round featureless ass.

No no no... the 2001 Fiat Multipla takes the crown for ugliest vehicle
ever. It looks like a frog with downs syndrome.

Will you just take look at THAT:

Don't think my 88 Fox Wagon is ugly. Maybe boxy compared to today's
vehicles.
