    IDK much about Renault’s, or cars for that matter, but isn’t renault one of the badges which is really just a badge now?

    My grandfather swore by renaults. They were expensive because they were imported from France (to Australia).

    Now, they’re one of the cheapest cars on the road because they’re manufactured in Korea. They have terrible resale value because rightly or wrongly, they’re perceived to be very poor quality.

    What I mean to say is, does renault the company really make cars, or do they just license their badge to whoever can make the cheapest Megane? I honestly don’t know but that’s the impression I get.

      It’s definitely not a rebadge car company. I highly doubt a rebadger would have been able to win Car of the Year with the Scenic this year. I believe the Clio, Megane and the Scenic cars are produced in Romania.

        I didn’t say they were a rebadge car company. Just pointing out that if you buy a Koleos in Australia, it will have been manufactured in Korea.
