Why is Yurop such a fucking nightmare for car enthusiasts?

>europe is one country meme

Kys you falseflagging mouthbreathing yankee retard

Much is being said of french cars' reliability or lack thereof but from my experience as long as you perform regular maintainance and treat the car right, it will never let you down (although that should be true for most cars)

Source: Drove a renault 19 for years without a single issue until I totalled it like an idiot. It had about 310.000km
Also the rest of my family owned french cars as well.

American friend living in Indiana here.

I would love to be able to buy Renaults.

At least you have access to Honda's if you really wanted one a la buying new. But I can't even get a Renault if I want one.

The Clio looks like a great alternative to the Golf but no. I'm in pickup truck and chevy shitbox land..

We also have way more and cheaper jap cars. I can get an s2000 for 6k while you pay like 20k

There's shitloads of civics and other japshit here in the UK. We have correct side drive here so they throw them at us.

>civics are hard to find
no they aren't, you can easily find decent Civics on Autotrader for not that much, even Type Rs

>Spain
Can confirm that this place is a shithole when it comes to cars, everyone and their mother driving either pigfat SUVs or extremely old, beaten up trash on wheels that doesn't even deserve to be called "shitbox".

I'll be getting a 208 GTi by PS myself, it's not a 3FAST5YOU machine by any means but it certainly is a really fun car, and very rare around here. Apparently the more boring a car is the better it sells in this shithole.

>inb4 french trash

Also, I forgot to mention that over here you need to do a shitload of paperwork in order to make even the slightest modification to your car.

>France
>Literally nothing but French cars there

also two countries out of like 30

Envy is Spain's national sport. You can't have nice things out of fear of other people fucking or stealing them.
