Yuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you.
Sorry you had to see this. And the old one looks so cute. They killed it.

yeah....the old one was brilliant :p but this doesnt half as gd as the old one did! i really hate the new look of this clio

I find it OK.....

the old one handled like a pos it understeered like hell hope they improved it on the new one

I like new design. Especialy black looks nice. It s realy not somethink of unpresidented beauty but it is balanced and nice. Interior and space inside is a great step up from previous version too.

Some cars like the new civic are a risktaking attempt, but this is just stupidity. It gets even worst, The Twingo one of the cutest little cars will be broght back and may look as bad as this.

I think it looks pretty good. Nothing crazy, (the old model was quite conservative), looks sharp.



You are all just a bunch of sheep, bar Vanquish.

The previous Clio Sport, handling wise, was bordering on godlyness for a FWD...what on earth are you talking about?



And that poll was crap, I vote 'it's good and I like it'.

Fair enogh. We are hear to judge cars not people. :driving

i think it has evolved than its old model and deserve it !

Now i like the new Clio(not love it but like) but I don't think it deserved "What car, car of the year"

Now i like the new Clio(not love it but like) but I don't think it deserved "What car, car of the year"

but remember that what car always focuses on affordable cars like the clio, i really like the new design and apparently the new one has a decent driving position compared to the old one's which was rubbish

Okay, this, the Micra, the Honda Jazz or the Toyota Yaris? 3 japanese cars!

On top Gear it got a good review by James may racing a bike.

I kind of reminds me the Megane model...
Like the Yaris reminds me of the Corolla...
Every small hatch tends to look like it's bigger "relative"...
I don't know if this is good or wrong... The look of the Clio doesn't make any impression at all to me... It's the continuation of the Renault design... But as for crash tests and comfortability it's good...

Apart from that would you want to be seen in a car like that.

It just looks like a more curvy version of the older clio to me.:-k

And the lights?

I don't think that it's too bad. It follows the current Renault line of design.

And the lights?


They almost look like toyota prius lights. Hell the car almost looks like a prius. Honestly, to me it looks a little feminine and more of a teenager's frist car-kinda car.

I agree with parko.
It looks good but it dosn't really stand out a huge amout.

Ths was Just to see what people think, some like it some don't.

What? This can't be right - the What Car? Car of The Year 2006 was the BMW 3-Series...duh....

No it was the Renault Clio. I've heard adverts on the radio for it and it says "the new Renault Clio. Voted Car of the Year 2006 by What Car."

It was and they have to take the looks into consideration.

its ugly and i think there are cars that Deserve it more than the clio

Deserve what more?

The Car of the year title i think.

Seeing as it's french, does this mean it has more gears for reverse than for drive?

The new Clio Sport looks good and I hope it to be as good as the old version...but I don't care too much about the standard version!!
Anyway that's a brilliant car for the " everyday - use ".

:driving

I agree. But this thread is mostly about the looks.

probably good for it
i will find out in about 2 weeks because i'am goign to drive one
i'll tell you after yh?

Deserve what more?

Yeah i ment car of the year

I think it deserve to get the title the car of the year...
It was the hottest hatch...very nice , and fast...and capable too...fun and sleek...so I think it deserve to get the title the car of the year...
Go clio go !

The weird thing is, the Scenic which looks similar, looks good to me and the Clio does not.

i dont like the Clio's that much... dull styling is the least offensive thing among others...and if the car is built to go fast please dont try and make it look like a family sedan

M5 is fast and it doesn't look like a Sedan...although it is a sedan...

It does look like a saloon/sedan.............
