Samsung as a car maker do rebadged Renaults in South Korea now https://www.renaultgroup.com/en/news-on-air/news/s...

^^ rebadged Renault Talisman?
(I don't think you get the Talisman in the UK? Like a slightly larger new Laguna, IMO.)

Don't get the laguna here any more either, the new Arkarna has filled the that gap

Saw a few Talismans (Talismen?) on a recent trip to Paris, have to say they looked really very smart. Obviously if they sold it in the UK they'd probably sell about 5 of them, but I like them.

As an aside, has anyone quite spaffed up a design as badly as Ferrari did moving from the stunning Testarossa and 512TR to the ugly duckling 512M?

Possible Ford moving from the MK3 to MK 4 Fiesta or the Granada to the Scorpio in the same decade.

Someone somewhere signed that off, and greenlit that as the design that would be released for build

Was it because they wanted to or because of having to replace the pop up lights with fixed lights (see also Honda NSX mk1)

A Geely brand, you get the car on subscription, instead of buying or leasing. There's a lot of Volvo XC40 underneath. I don't think they've launched here (yet?) https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/lynk-co/01/100210/ne...
