If you thought the Swift was ugly...

While the Swift is a very popular car in India and a hot seller for Maruti-Suzuki, there
is no doubt about the fact that it is overall an ugly car. My Dad has a Swift and when at
Kerala, I drive it and mostly like the car - though it is not a patch on my Baleno. But
that does not take its ulginess away.

But, if you thought a car could not get any uglier, you should have a look at the Renault
Megane. Looks like the car designers at Renault were given a very simple brief - take
the Swift as inspiration and come up with something even more uglier.

And that was how the Megane was born, oops, manufactured. Have a look at the snap
below - does it not look like a Swift that was hit on the roof with a battering ram, thereby
flattening it a bit and extending the rear, making it arguably the most butt-ugly car in the
world.


Ofcourse, the Serbs don't seem to be too bothered, given the number of Meganes you
can see on the roads. To each his/her own.
