Bad facelifts...

[Chris Peacock]

Not the Heat magazine type BTW...

Driving about yesterday, I noticed the latest 3 series bimmer, also the latest Jag XF facelift, (I think) to look worse than the original non facelifted model.

We used to own a 2002 Civic type R (pre facelift) and I thought it looked better than the later facelifted version.....this was probably my biast opinion though!.

Any others you can think of?...

Citroen saxo, the original always looked better with the rectangular headlights than the shaped ones of the facelift.

The latest 3-series isn't a facelift - it's a complete new model.

My vote goes to the Renault Twingo:

Indeed.

This is the second time this thread has been done, and the first was ruined with a slew of irrelevant pictures of new models that weren't facelifts.

Expect the same to happen with this as the PH massive aren't quick learners.

PS. I am with you with the Twingo. WTF - those foglights...

Yet again you are talking KAK. Hardly a devastating change and besides which this is a NEW MODEL and not a facelift!

Maybe, but still one of the sttest example of irony I've seen in a thread. BMW pic poster - FAIL. The lowest common denominator is alive and thriving here.

The facelift XF mainly due to those cheap look drls. The Volvo C30 facelift looks crap too, and the facelift Rover 75 / Mg ZT's looked a lot less menacing than the pre facelifts.

Just talking to the wife about the C30 and she prefers the pre facelift too, although I prefer the newer one

The problem is that a lot of people don't know when a car is a new model or face lift.

Surprised by the XF comments. The current one is how it was always supposed to be.
