It’s a Ford Windstar. Very popular minivan in the US in 1990s. Went on sale in 1994 with a choice of 3.0L or 3.8L V6 engine. It had a base price of less than US$20,000 (by comparison, a Toyota Camry V6 at that time sold for US$22,000). The model lasted until 2003 (with various facelifts), before being superceded by the Freestar.

Nice update to the site!

Since this article only covers U.S. Fords, this does not surprise me. American cars have become ugly unreliable lemons since the ’70s. There are only few new American cars I admire from looks alone.

Is it just me or does the front of that “thing” look like an old Fiesta?

Just waiting for the headline 10Million US cars have been recalled. Because Americans have just realised they own the ugliest cars in the known universe.
