The title of the thread is "R56 is ugly?" so it seems quite normal for people to answer than question head on and to use the (suddenly socialy unacceptable ) "ugly" word in their response.

Calling a person ugly is rude. Calling a car ugly is not.
Unless of course the car is like Herbie (AKA The Love Bug) and has become self-aware.

Just for info - does the MINI2 request to not use "ugly" to describe a car only apply to MINI's or all cars?
