Now, if I was in charge at some of these car companies, none of this **** would get produced

"Boss, I've got the new design for the Megane"

"Let's 'ave a look. What the ...? Are you serious? Get your desk cleared out, you'll never work in automotive design again"

It's very, very ugly from the back. Don't know what it's like from the front.

Just seen the new Megane in the flesh. The pictures don't do it justice. It's really ugly.

I always preferred the Firenza. In fact I had a Viva Magnum 2300 Coupe for a wee while, complete with Chevette HSR wheels, black bonnet and vinyl roof (rest of the car was yellow). I wish it hadn't been such a rust bucket or I'd still be driving it today (although it would have had a Rover V8 or Cossie motor in it).

Anyway, just because I think the Megane is ugly, doesn't mean we'd all be driving old bangers, totally ridiculous statement. It is possible to push the boundaries of design without making an ugly car you know.
