What about this funky French car?

The Renault Wind. I like it.

I guess someone has to buy it.

Look pretty horrible in the flesh to be honest. Think it's a clio underneath as well.

Still, amusing name and a good ice breaker when people ask you what you drive I suppose.

This or an MX5?
Toug... MX5!

Looks OK in that pic.

[EDLT]

Renault have stopped selling them, I think...

Selling is perhaps the wrong word, they are no longer on sale.

Looks libra-esque

[DaveH23]

Lots and lots of threads on here last year when renault slashed this car and others from its UK line up due to dwindling sales..

Still a funky looking car - There a 2 at work and the GF's mate has one aswell - Never been in one though.

Looks like a Midas that's mated with a Lotus Europa. And then eaten lots of pies.

They look very odd in the metal. Head-on they're Clio-esque, then you notice the roof line. I applaud Renault for attempting something different but I fear it's the answer to a question no-one asked.

But they are not rival cars?

[DanDC5]

They remind me of a CRX Del-Sol for the new millenium, only without a decent engine option.

[C.A.R.]

Gayest roof ever.

And yes, they've stopped selling these now. Not that I expect them to go up in value on the used market (though I could be wrong!)

Different pricetag, completely different cars.

This one does not look odd. Seemed like a better looking Tigra to me. Clio underpinnings aren't bad at all.

I'm not female so unqualified to comment on this. ;-)

[C.A.R.]

I thought it was Twingo underpinnings, not Clio?

Current Twingo has the previous gen Clio underpinnings

[Chrisw666]

It's similar to the Twingo RS underneath so should be a decent steer in 133bhp format.

SWMBO told me she liked them last month and TBH they don't seem too bad, plenty of toys, small, cheap to run, and a clever roof. Not that big or practical though and not a car that I'd be in a rush to own.

I think the looks are ok, stand-out-ish and cute. Not as good as the A110-50 concept though
