Renault must realise that NOW is the perfect time to launch a budget brand... the Sandero is a stylish little car

Not worth building an extra plant just for the UK, market not that big in comparison to start up costs. That's what happens when u want to be different from the rest of the world, sometimes u get left out. Many cool cars don't come in RHD, if u really want it, order it from outside the country in LHD.

and of course just some elements of this design will be used in the final production model... much of all these features are not even possible to industrialize to a large scale production level

I am really sorry that, in this crysis, some carmakers don't make their best to satisfy the demand for all markets, at least in EUROPE. I am also, proud of this model, romanian being - even if there won't be made a model like this or 50 % like this! The dacia website had a blast of visitors, i guess .. and this is a big marketing move also. Let's hope that in the future, the low-cost Dacia will have more quality for the money and same low-for-what-you-get prices.

What about Dacia Steppe at Geneva 2006? That was also a Concept car... Both are "first-ever concept car"? Do you use copy-paste a lot? http://www.worldcarfans.com/2060301.012/dacia-logan-steppe-concept

Somehow Renault/Dacia doesn't equate them as the same. Taken from Dacia's press release, "Duster is Dacia's first concept car and the fruit of close collaboration between Renault Design Central Europe in Bucharest, Romania, and Renault Design Technocentre in Guyancourt, France."
