What car models do you dislike and why?
 Nissan CubeI've seen quite a few of these on the road before and I have never understood the appeal in them. Surely i'm not the only one who thinks they look ugly? If you wanted to own a small car, why wouldn't you just buy a more aesthetically appealing car like the Hyundai i20 or the Mazda 2?  Holden CommodoreI don't really have an issue with the cars themselves, but whenever I look at a Holden Commodore like the one above (or a more recent model), I can't help but think of the type of people who usually drive them. Unfortunately, most of the people who drive Holden Commodores or Ford Falcons are either revheads, lowlifes, druggos or just your stereotypical bogans. Not all Commodore or Falcon drivers are like that of course, but most of the drivers I tend to see on the road match at least one or more of the descriptions I gave above.

All of them, I prefer motorbikes!
To actually keep within the premise of the question though, I hate Rolls Royces and Mercedes because of what they represent.

The Nissan Juke is absolutely hideous, should be called the Nissan Puke.

When I see them, I automatically think that the person driving it has no taste in the design of cars. Your description of it is pretty much right!

Any Hummer, but especially the H2. They're so big and ugly.

The Nissan Juke is absolutely hideous, should be called the Nissan Puke. Those things are kinda hideous. Holden Captiva (commonly known as a Craptiva). Not really because they look bad, but because those things have major faults and the ones I’ve seen used really old tech compared to others out there. You would only consider them based on a really low price tag, even then you’d have serious reservations, surely!

Anything Daewoo, (including the Craptiva, the death trap Barina (TK) GM Korea these days, of course.  The Cruze!  Most of Holden's lineup is subpar rubbish now, unfortunately. Some I know with a Craptiva or Cruze has had horrendous issues from the start.

There's an American version with a Chevrolet badge called the Chevy Cruze.

Some I know with a Craptiva or Cruze has had horrendous issues from the start. only to cover up the fact that it is Daewoo Yuck! I completely agree! Transmission fails are so common, even only after 10 Years of service, and whilst the V6 Alloytec (Australian Built Engine) was used in some products, itself was unreliable. The Barina TK was rubbish, as was the Epica (Epicfail sales wise  ), and the Cruze is just poorly made. It's such a shame that Holden went with a plethora of Daewoo products, rather than the tried and tested Opel cars they had previously. The Astra's (TS 98-05 & AH 04-09) are great cars, with far better handling dynamics and overall build quality. Some with the XC Barina. Holden has the Astra back now, which is a great car, but the damage has been done to the name and brand, sadly. Cassie Yep, that's the one we are referring to!

Yeah, I’m certainly not “into” cars like your good self , but have been reading some years old shocking stories online about Daewoo (GM) the last couple of days, and they were/are far worse than I thought! I can fully understand their terrible reputation.
