I personally think the Up! is the worst looking out of the 3 VW Group cars ( I don't like the Ups front end look at all ! ). For looks I would put the cars in this order -

1. Skoda Citigo

2. Seat Mii

3. VW Up!

I would put them in the same order for their names as well ! who the hell came up with Mii ( sounds like a Nintendo character ! ) and Up!

What order would you put the cars in looks wise ?

I just recall the VW up ad that was pulled. The Red Up!, The Blue Up! The Green Up!, and er, dubiously, The Black Up!

I agree.

Saw an UP! the other day and the front grill just looks weird.

Then saw a Citigo a few minutes later and thought "hmmm, that's better!"

I agree the up's front & rear just do not look right, for me the Citygo has the best inside but the Nintendo has the edge outside. .

I feel the OP needs to post up pictures of all of them.

We are biased.

To me the UP! looks too young and funky and the Mii is a bit too angular.

Skoda resisted the need to make it a teenager car and kept sensible looks, which I like.

I wouldn't say I was biased lol I/we could have bought any of the 3 after all

Here you go !

True, but generally people defend what they own.

As for the picture of all three together, clearly Skoda is better.

Seat is supposed to be the sportier marque but for me the Skodas lower bumper is lower and more sportier looking than the Mii ! The Ups bumper is just odd !

I'm sure it would be an easy job to respray that lower front bumper on the Up! in the black... or wrap it... Then it would look good!

The seat has a very high bonnet making it quite a sharp angle between the end of the bumper and the bonnet - makes it look much less sporty!

I think that the 'VW' badge is too big on the Up! - it looks like it belongs on a commercial vehicle. I do prefer the angle of the bonnet in relation to the lights on the Mii. Slightly more aggressive.

Did not like the Up at all, only nice in black. Also the glossy black dash is ugly, as well as some of the fabrics I saw. And they forgot to close the bonnet.

The Seat was similar to the Skoda imo, bit more modern looking, such as the blue/white @mii:

I've looked on the UK Seat site and not even the Sport has that front bumper so this isn't a 'standard' car so I don't think you can use this photo as a comparision. In the photo above showing all 3 cars the bumper is as on the Official Seat site.

The bumper on this blue Mii looks better than the standard cars one I must admit, but I still prefer the Skodas more aggressive wider 'mouth' at the bottom of the bumper.

Edit - Or is this angle of the car making the black grill look deeper ?! I can't make my mind up lol

Here's a front view of the Mii and Citigo. With the Up! in the top picture.

A lot of people say that they prefer the upward kick in the rear side window of the 3-door up!, which the 3-door Citigo and Mii don't have. My personal point of view on that is that it cuts down the glass area for people in the rear seat: having sat in one, it's a bit like looking out of a porthole.

The five-doors (my particular interest) are identical from the side, as far as I know.

What decided me away from the up! (apart from distance to dealer) was the all-glass tailgate, but I accept that I'm probably in a minority of one on that, as the general view seems to be that it is really cool.

Interestingly I like the interiors in the same order as I like the outside looks ! 1. Citigo 2. Mii 3. Up!

My kids hands would be all over the shiny dash on the Up! Fingerprint City !!!

The Up! dash is horrible - agree with that! Not too keen on the Mii's internal colour scheme, either... But presumably that can be changed!

Yeah all biased for the Mii looks better, the vw interior is more retro modern techno

Bit like the Aygo, C1 and 107....

Yeah same sort of thing as those you've mentioned, all the same car but tweaked looks. The Up! is too tweaked for me though. It all comes down to personal taste really. If you like the Up! you've got bad taste !

Haha. Yeah the Aygo is the most radical withrhw C1/107 just having slightly different bumpers next to each other. Much like these

For what it's worth I prefer the look of the Citigo.

Which is why I ordered one!

Don't like the dash on the Up!, the back window kink or the all glass tailgate.

The Mii looks too angular from the front and the interior doesn't work for me.

Citigo, Up, then Mii....

The up is called that - rather bizarely - because the UP concept followed in line with the IROC concept. Just that the IROC became the Scirocco but the UP didn't become the Lupo :(

However, I do like the look of this:

Me too, I really hope Skoda are allowed to build a version...
