We all know manufacturers will facelift a model to update the look, some go to the extent of new lights, new bumpers and even new engine options and others just opt for clear indicators.

I know there must be more but what other manufacturers have facelifted a car twice? I can only think of one and I'm hoping the PH masses can come up with some more.

The Renault Clio MK2
First one...



Facelifted



And face lifted again

Rover were good at this. The 200 became the 25, which then became the MG ZR. I think each had several face lifts.

The original 107/C1/Aygo siblings each went through two facelifts after the original version, that's not including the brand new 108/C1/Aygo generation.

The Giulietta apparent a has had a few although I think mainly its interior changes that you'll see.

The DS3 also had a few, you have the original version with standard lights and Citroen bumpers/badging, then they upgraded the front and rear lights to LED, then recently they added the new DS bumpers

Duster is on it's third incarnation in the UK; Indian built, moved to Romanian built and added a different grille, headlights and trim and now the third version has just been launched; different head and tail lights, new dash and trim; all in a little over 3 years.

The Saab 9-5 had a few different facelifts over it's life, think that the third one was best with the wider lower gril, the second one was quite minor but they changed to HID lighs instead of the fluted ones.
The last update 'dame edna' I don't know wtf GM were thinking, perhaps it appealed to Americans? Tbh it doesn't look too bad on a silver coloured car, or when it's colour coded.

Doesn't count as the 3rd one isn't a facelift.

Alfa 156, first facelift was color matching mirrors, bump strips, and a new interior. Second facelift was the redesigned nose.
Alfa GTV, first facelift was a chrome trim in the scudetto and a redesigned dash, second was a redesigned nose.
The original Alfa spider (105 based, ran from the 60s to early 90s) had 4 different models as well.

Gallardo has had about a million different face lifts in the 128 years it was in production for.

Or it feels like it, anyway.
