Aston Martin celebrates its 100th anniversary with a radical one-off concept car
What does the designer of the new Renault Clio say?
Speaking about the styling, van den Acker said: "Like muscles, its curves express the dynamism radiated by the DeZir concept car. No acute or aggressive angles, just voluptuous curves that make you want to go up to it and caress it".

It seems that every auto manufacturer applies the bloat-pump to each successive version of their established models, together with, usually, substantial extra weight to trail around. Just look at the size of, say, the current Fiesta against the original. And, as for the moronic application of 'crossover' status to existing platforms, thereby compounding the weight increase and reducing aerodynamic effiencies..........
Surely increased engine efficiencies which are being applied at long last by the manufacturers are being eroded by increasing losses incurred by ever larger and heavier cars? The World needs more NETT fuel efficiency.
Anyway, good luck to Renault with this one. I hope that their reliability record, service costs and rates of depreciation improve.
