Hi Folks,

Thanks for taking the time to stare at this load of old nonsense, which has been going for about eight years or so now (God knows why). Thanks too to the sponsor of "The Ugliest Cars in Britain" - Just Systems Ltd.

This site has just been re-jigged (hard to tell, I know) and is now all active, which hopefully means more updates. A new nominations/comments system is in place, which should mean most of your comments appearing more quickly.

Don't be disheartened if you don't see your nomination appear in the listings immediately as we need to weed out the naughty swear words and potentially libellous bits first. Sometimes we won't add a nomination because it is hopeless, abusive, already mentioned or not available in the UK. Oh, and don't bother trying to get into a philosphical debate about car design because we're far too shallow for that (i.e. we don't care). We also hope to add the facility for you to upload your ugly car photos soon.

I will also be adding some new cars to the site soon, unless I get abducted by aliens again.

We were pleased to see the pages featured in the October 1999 issue of Practical Classics, the Yahoo Cool Sites list since December 1998, the March issue of Top Gear Magazine and aparrently we featured in the Toronto Star towards the end of November 1999, but sadly my local newsagent said they didn't stock that particular newspaper and perhaps I'd like to buy some expensive cigarettes instead.

And before I forget - don't forget to have a look at the "Guest" slot where we feature a few of the greatest ugly cars from around the universe (and TV-land).

We've now added a page-o-links for when you get bored with this site (usually after 30 seconds) and need to move on to something more worthy.

06/01/2005  - the site has now been awarded a "Yahoo! Search Find of the Year 2004

We also made an appearance on ITV Central News on 14/1/05: (pic is Mark chatting to Central News reporter Mark Gough while cameraman sets up equipment)

Oct 06 - Now you can buy some fantastic (we hope- but possibly not) Uglycars merchandise from Spreadhsirt designer...Uglycars Shop

Cheers

Phil
& Mark
