Design is a fickle thing, for someone like me, this is a hideous and somewhat awkward looking car, the nose is too big and looks like an afterthought, the wheels are too small and makes the car look like a toy, to be honest the standard list of features is pretty damn good for a car of this size and price, just wish they'd thought more about styling.


    **EDIT**
    still makes me sick looking at it though!
    Once again, couldn't agree more !

    Also other choices would be Ford Fiesta, Mazda 2, Hyundai I20, Mitsu Colt...that last one isn't exactly an oil painting either, but if your going to be driving around in something cheap and fugly, I'd still choose it over the Daewoo as at least it has a 5/10 year warranty term...

    I don't want to have to clean the thread out like the other one.

    Ange we all know that your car collection is the greatest thing in the world, and nothing can compare to it.

    Maybe give it a break on telling us what you think of the Spark, we get the point you don't like it.


    Anyway I have a job to do, besides look after 3 year olds.

    Don't let it get out of hand again people

    You guys are looking at this all wrong. Small ugly cars usually have hot chicks driving them. I for one can't wait to see this car on the road and take photos of the drivers. Click here to enlarge

    This was at the Motor Show last month. It's uglier in the metal.

    On the plus side, my girlfriend thinks it's the goods!

    is she hot?
    Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.

    This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....

    Your kidding right ???

    Fair point the other thread wasn't about knocking the car in question, this one clearly is !

    To that end I havn't done or written anything wrong or off topic IMHO, this whole thread is exactly about telling what you think about the spark, there's also realistic opinions on other alternatives to justify it, so what gives here ?

    Have you recently purchased shares in Daewoo ? Click here to enlarge

    P.S about the comment on my cars, I've always told it as it is for longer than most on this board without bias and criticise them (especially the Cali) as much as any other car I own and don't particularly like in some way or another, I don't take sides on that one...

    Hopefully the above makes sense (except the joke) and not just jibberish from a 3 year old Click here to enlarge
