What did you think of it Loz? i went in a Yellow one, later model, enjoyed it, decent performance but the build quality was abysmal.

Back then , it was quite unique to have one , quite pokey performance but the interiors were very boxy and lacking any style , mine was a wine mettalic with cream leather , used to have the inherrent occasional over heating problem when stopped in traffic , wiierd because it didn't do it everytime , went through thermostats and 2 water pumps like no ones business and it still never cured it , so it got sold

Typical Renault then, apparently the 5 Turbo's used to set on fire in traffic.

The last French supercar(?).......then taxed off the automotive scene......pity when France do so many things well...they then see a fast car as being anti-social/socialist....

275 by all accounts but I think it was proved a fake in the end. I think its a very cleverly done bit of sound mixing, the speed to me does not increase with the engine noise, but still a great piece of cinematography!

The best bit for me was seeing all the old french cars, anyones else spot the Alfa Montreal at 5:39 on the right, white I think.

Several DS (j'adore La DS)

i did French at GCSE, only took the subject because the teacher was a lovely 35 year old MILF, that is no joke.

 

[Parisien]

I took it too Adam in 1976........failed it....then took it again 20yrs later......A*.......but still didn't make much difference....lol

I was lucky and got a grade C so i passed. I never managed to make my fantasy with my teacher a reality which was a shame.

....MILF free was my boarding skool.......................even the French teacher was a gargoyle......................
