Is an Audi?

Is it a BMW 7 series?

Is is big Mondeo?

Is it a Bentley?

Is it a Mercedes?

Is it a Volvo?

Noooooo!

I rather like it. Wouldn't have one but I'd be happy to be picked up in one as a taxi.


It's a Genesis G90.




It's such a mashup of every other luxo barge just looking at it makes me feel nauseous.

I had a go in one last week. Plenty of kit. Plenty fast enough. Great ride.
Feeling nauseous just from looking at a car? Really?

[LuS1fer]

He means nauseated.

As previously mentioned, he probably meant nauseated. Now looking at one of these will make you feel PROPERLY nauseous.





I'd have loved to be a fly on the wall of the boardrooms at Pontiac and SsangYong (respectively) when those designs were signed off!

The Aztec is so bad it's cool (possibly due to Breaking Bad). The Rodius has no redeeming features.

It does, it's RWD. If you listen to the PH masses, that makes it better handling than anything with wrong or 4 wheel drive.

And it's mahoooosive inside.
If you have kids/people and luggage to move, nothing else comes close.

Aside from Jap. import MPVs, which are at least as good in terms of space for people and luggage, but look a lot better and come with stonking great V6 petrol engines

Does anyone else think that drifting a Rodius would be a giggle?

No

Had an arguement in the office yesterday, my colleague talking about getting a small estate for her and her dog.
Our manager suggested a Clio Estate. I laughed out loud, scoffing there was no such car!
Turns out there is...

And the newer version (UK doesn't get this one)

What about the Mercury Capri

Rhodius has a Merc engine and other bits and bobs, doesn't it? The newer Turismo is much better looking, although still an utter monstrosity.

That newer version looks very nice!

[McAndy]

I was just thinking that.

Vauxhall Arena, replaced the Midi.

It was a stop gap made from around 1997-2000 until the new models co-developed with Renault went on sale. A very strange move as the Renault it was based on was at least 15 years old, the only logical reason behind it being a desperation to compete in the van market.

According to Car magazine, there was a van version of the Metro sold as the Morris 310 and had the dubious honour of being the last model sold under the Morris brand (sorry, best pic I could find):

These awesome machines
They are actually very luxorious inside too (and the bottom can do 50mpg)
