Have you already seen the C4 WRC Concept? I think it is even better styled than the Megane.

Yes I meant that one and having seen the car with my own eyes I think it looks very much better than the Megane.

It's quite difficult to make a choice for me...
I think Renault makes good cars and i love the Clio V6 phase II . The style is ambitious..
The citroen are also very is terms of comfort and handling... good cars are coming also (C5 with the restyling, C4 and C6).
Concerning Peugeot...
I'm found of the new Peugeot 407 !! My engineer school is at 2 km from the place where they produce it ( PSA La Janais) and i know the chief test engineer ...so i could test it 6 month before it came oon the market the style is magnificent and the handling is unbelievable !! it will come with a brand new diesel HDI V6 2.7 Biturbo of 200 hp in 2005...(but i prefer gasoline engines...unfortunately the problem in france is that most of the development of the engines are for the diesels..there is 3.0 liter V6 of 211 hp (the same basis as the clio V6) but it's quite weak it think...

Quite a difficult question here. I would say Renault since I'm buying a Renault Mégane this summer and since we own a Vel Satis already (cool car, better than the BMW 725tds we had before that one). But I also like Citroën a lot, the 2CV was for me much cooler than the VW beetle. But's it's such a shame that the C5's looks are just so so. Also Citroën uses the same great HDi Diesel-engines that Peugeot uses. (Henk you're not the only one who likes diesels ). But today my vote goes to Renault. Especially considering their awesome design. Maybe this opinion could change once Citroën releases the C6.
