Dear Mr Ssangyong

I don't know what it is you're all smoking/drinking/injecting down there, but I think you ought to stop. Like, now.

Have you ever actually taken a look at any of the models you produce, once they are actually built? Perhaps they look great on the screens in your office, but in the metal they are all, frankly, hideous.

Let's take the Rodius as an example. From the front, I'll admit it's not too offensive, a little dull perhaps but that's about as far as it goes. Then you move round to the side or the rear. I've seen small children taken ill just by casting their eyes on such an abomination. Perhaps you always intended for it to be a simple hatchback - the roof line and C-pillars seem to indicate that - and then somebody had the bright idea of turning into an MPV and adding what amounts to a loft extension.

And what the Hell is going on at the front of the Sports Pickup? I've just been left genuinely speechless...
