Renault Wind!

[2o6]

Basically, a Twingo convertible. Looks like those shots leaked a few years ago were real.

[omicron]

More like the Renault Flatulence, if you ask me.

Good sir, that car already exists.

[omicron]

Good god!

Damn, beaten to the punch. Although I was going to squeeze the phrase "passing wind" in there somewhere.

[giant_mtb]

What an odd-looking vehicle.

[Raza]

I want to like it, but I don't really.  Like a French Del Sol.

[AutobahnSHO]

I'd drive it.




If you gave it to me, AND paid the taxes....

[SVT666]

So it blows?

[AutobahnSHO]

So it blows?

I dunno.
Just going off how it looks...   

[ChrisV]

That's actually why I like it. Unlike the DelSol, the top mechanism actaully leaves you with useable trunk space with the top down.

It seems like a cool little runabout. I'd bet it's a hoot to drive.

[Byteme]

So if you test drove it and caused it to stop running would you be accused of Breaking Wind?

Everytime you come to a stop will you be Braking Wind?

With a name like Wind would your car be the butt of jokes?

If someone steals your car would they be Gone With The Wind.

Will a popular name for the car be Mariah?

If you park it next to a Peugeot will you have the Wind and the Lion?

If the car needs a tuneup is it an Ill Wind?

Do these puns blow?


That's all I've got for now.

Doesn't say much, but it looks better than the Del Sol. Problem is, I hated the Del Sol. Then again, I had the opportunity to drive a Del Sol and it felt heavy in comparison to a civic of the same year.

Who knows, maybe this thing is fun?

I think the profile looks a bit silly, with so much metal.

If you go to Kansas, will you get dust in the wind?

[Byteme]

If you go to Kansas, will you get dust in the wind?

And if you go by one on the freeway, you'll be passing wind.   

[nickdrinkwater]

This thing looks like shit.  It's like a cross between a Vauxhall Tigra and a Suzuki X90, plus a massive dose of additional ugliness.

And adding to Renault's recent run of Epic Styling Fail is the Megane CC:

[93JC]

Do people even buy these little convertibles in Europe? It seems everyone makes one or two of them.

Obviously.


There's these city car based ones, but from what I gather the supermini and compact based verts sell better.

Well in the UK we supposedly have the highest convertible sales in Europe.  But yeah the market is very saturated, and pretty much all of them look like shit.

I remember the 307 and 206 CCs sold pretty well when they came out.  But not seen so many of the newer models.

[Jon?]

Zut alors!  C'est vraiment bleu.

[giant_mtb]

[Northlands]

"Damn/Darn/Blimey, it's really blue" is what he said.

[the Teuton]

So when it has to go in for repairs, does that mean someone has broken Wind?

I don't know, but I could sure as hell pass Wind.

[the Teuton]

Extended wheelbase model to be called Long-Winded?
