So Tim, now you have a Lagonda and finally a "true" Aston Martin!
( Sorry could not resist, I know the IQ is a great little car )

Helen really likes it! She says she wants one for shopping when she doesn't think she there will be room park the RX.

I quite fancied one as a piece of 'art' to put in our holiday home. Wasn't allowed though..

Vincent - now I can see why you bought the Bitter - looks great with the wedge.

Not at all. It's quite superb.

Nice colour match for the others, must get a family picture

Love the Bitter, don't think you could get them in the UK. I'm oddly drawn to the Lancia Gamma Coupe and a Lotus Esprit S1. It must be my age or something.

29 Bitter SC were built in RHD

A link : http://www.bitter-owners-club.com/TheClub.html

But I far prefer the Lagonda !

I think perhaps the Pinto was designed with its fuel tank too far back. But probably the worst designed cars included the old Corvair, which provided Ralph Nader his ticket for the gravy train.

As for the ugliest car ever made, have you seen what Nissan is turning out these days? I reviewed the Micra a couple of years ago, and I recalled it looked like "a particularly ugly man, mid-sneeze". The Nissan Note I tested some time later wasn't all that pretty either...

Okay, in the spirit of the foregoing, how about:

I am probably the best (and the last) of the breed, I have a v6 engine and a colour scheme of which Josiah Wedgewood would be proud. I was British, with Teutonic influence, but now Chinese under an assumed name.

Any takers?

Almost, but not quite. Remember the assumed name...

Riddle-me-ree, isn't this fun?
