1999 Jaguar S-Type
Back in 1998, when Jaguar brought back the iconic S-Type, everyone in the car industry let out a collective sigh. Its design is practically yawn-inducing. It looks as if Jaguar attempted to combine different classic car designs unsuccessfully. Even when it was released, the car was perceived as awkward and outdated, which makes it surprising that it held up until 2007.

While this European micro-car seems like a great idea for people who live in a big city, in reality, it isn’t so great. The only thing going for this car is its size. Aside from that, this car is pretty awful. Let’s start with the mechanics of it. The transmission is vague and searching, and has bad fuel economy for its size. Its exterior is even worse. The paint is constantly peeling, not to mention the design itself makes the car look like a children’s toy.
