I just wondered what modery cars people think have character? Not just what looks cool or goes fast but what you think has a certain charm.

I personally think out of all the performance hatches that the Megane has that, unlike the Focus ST/Astra VXR etc

I can't think of many modern cars that do???


Any thoughts.............

I know this is going to get some dodgy responses but i actually quite like the Citroen C2

Tell me that isn't a nice car!

P.S. I'm already prepared for the backlash

As it is in the pic (super 1600) I agree, But don't try and pass me off with a standard one.

I think the Alfa Romeo GT is a nice looking car, there arent really many cars these days that have much character as the manufacturers are pretty conservative with designs these days. I dont like it but the Citoren C4 certainly has character and is quite daring by todays standards.

I agree but then again don't try and sell me a standard Megane.

Cars these days don't really have any character, it's mainly the older models i.e. the old Mini had character. The new one doesn't.

Alfa Brera is in this category especially the 3.2 V6 4x4

There aren't as many modern cars with character but in time we'll see which ones do!!

The original VW Beetle as well is a cool little car.

That pic of the C2 looks pretty cool but in general I reckon the C2 VTR will just blend in with all the other cars of the time.

I reckon the Rolls Royce Phantom is pretty cool too. :D
