Fiat have jumped on the mini bandwagon and IMO I think it works, I also really like the Q7 and would choose it over the other Chelsea tractors out there.
PT Cruiser and X6 I agree.

Agree that x6 is fugly and saw a 57 plate Sang Yong (?) 4x4 that was truly hideous - looked like it had half a conservatory grafted onto the back.

I'd agree X6 - an ugly and pointless Chelsea tractor. Just how car-illiterate would you have to be to choose one of those over, say, a 535D Touring?
For sheer ugliness though the Porsche Cayenne is way out in front

Fiat 500 is cool but costs to much.
porsche cayenne - for when you have more money than taste.
anything from Kia
X5, X3, X6 Xugly
Like Micra's (not esp pretty) CC is ugly, as are most of the "CC" cars

Fiat 500 is great.
I had an x6 demo out and it is superb to drive and even the co2 is quite low.
As to pointless, I need a big car that drives okay but has enough ground clearance to cope with some rough roads (535d touring, E-Class can't do this, XC70 would be okay I suppose) and plenty towing capacity for horse boxes/boats/car trailers.
Cayenne is horrible but with the price difference between diesel and petrol widening and the new Cayennes being direct injection a Cayenne is looking like an option.

The new impreza- Its like they did a cut and paste of all the euroboxes and cobbled all the worst bits together. They should have stuck with original design.
It does seem to be doing quite well in the WRC. It does drive a lot better than the last model
