A Good Facelift

[JayTee94]

The same as the Facelift Fails thread.

Linky!

Instead of posting pictures of bad facelifts though, you can post pictures of good facelifts that updated the shape, improved the lines of a current car.

I will start:

2007 Ford Mondeo



which was nicely updated with this...

2011 Ford Mondeo



Over to you Pistonheads.

Almost all facelifts... That is sort of the point...

First post in, and you're wrong already

Pre facelift Mondeo looked far nicer, simpler, more elegant (especially from the back, where the facelift has overly fussy tail lights).

My nomination; bug eye



to blob eye



to hawk eye

I'm going to be a picky-pants. I prefer the pre-facelift Mondeo.

I still think the following was a good move:

I'm going to agree but to be honest, the 'blob eye' only looks good because the 'bug eye' was so awful!
'Hawk Eye' looks good though. (A mate has a Jap Spec-C in black and it has a good frontal stance)

I always preferred the blob eye impreza over the hawk eye. In before cars that aren't facelifts

Also, I like the 306 facelift

This:

The 106 looked good too.

No problem Stevie Wonder. I'd just like to say I'm a big fan of your work.

I think the blob-eye front looks best of the 3, too.

I think 2011 Mondeo to 2013 Mondeo is a better facelift.

I don't think you've quite grasped the concept of a facelift.

Isn't that the Mk.2 Aston Rapide?

It wasn't until the facelift version came out that I decided the pre facelift was actually god awful!! Plus the facelift bonnet never smacks right in the head everytime you look in the engine bay.

I think the 2013 Mondeo looks fantastic
