Proton Gen 2 - Leon on Derv
Did a few miles behind one of these tonight. Got home to discover it was a neighbour's car. Quite a nice looking motor in my opinion. Had an eyeball at the website to see the interior - and it wasn't bad looking either - OK 2 dimensional images can sometimes be a bit deceptive.

Anyone taken a drive in one of these yet? Not interested from a buying perspective, just curious on first hand views of others.

I really like the shape of them from the back.

Leon

I parked next to one the other day...it looks quite like a Leon from the outside, at least in it's shape...the sculpture was rather less appealing to my eye...

I also had a brief glimpse inside (as you do when u see a car for the first time)...it looked a bit odd really...it could've been the sunlight I guess...but I've never seen beige plastic shine before...

IIRC AutoExpress said they were quite nice to drive, but the interior was made out of plastics that McDonalds would have rejected.

Almost but not quite could have been a Rover.
