I can't work out if this website is awful or genius

Apparently it's a hugely successful business LingsCars[^] and maybe the website is deliberately awful to stand out. I think I've been doing it wrong all these years. Time to throw out all the books on UI / UX and just throw the kitchen sink at my next project :-D

Love it. :-D For some reason, it brings to mind Drew Kaplan's old DAK Catalog, even though they're not very similar at all. Strange, the connections that form in ones head.

I vote awful. It honestly doesn't take the latest technology or even a lot of effort or programming chops to come up with something more modern looking.

And how many people send the modern looking sites viral?
Just because it's "viral" doesn't mean it's "good".

It made me a little sick of my stomach, but in general I found it very amusing, specially the source code. Spent some time trying to determine if the website was legit. There is also an interesting newspaper article clip: "Eccentric Entrepreneur scoops business accolade and industry praise for supposed 'worst website'"

Actually, it reminds me a lot of Japanese websites even from just a few years ago.

I remember this place when it first opened. It's located in the North East of England, and its site attracted a lot of hilarity here. I guess they have the last laugh.
