The Renault 21 Is Cooler Than I Ever Imagined
I am just as confused as you are but I am suddenly stricken with love and appreciation for a mid-level French sedan of the 1980s. The 1986 to 1994 Renault 21 has no styling, almost no history, and I adore it.

I guess it started when I was looking at old pictures of a Renault 21 wagon (badged as a Renault Nevada) that I bumped into on the street one dreary and grimy day in Berlin a few years back. I can recall it was down the street from a Robur, and I think it was up the street from a clown studio, but I might be misremembering things. Unforgettable, though, was its clean almost lack of design whatsoever. It’s just a nicely-proportioned brick.
