xddddddddddd 100 emojay
I fucking hate crossovers and small "city cars" they look fucking disgusting, like dented egg
Does air resistance really matters this much when you are driving 100hp moms car?
Renault has gud and okay-ish cars, some are retarded (e.g. kadjar). Renault paint (PSA too) chips waaaaaayy too easily though.
Threadly reminder by buying PSA cars you're sponsoring state-mandated cuckery ane rapefugee intake.

In france, until 2 years ago, you couldn't own bikes with more than 100 hp top fucking kek.
In france, men cannot order a paternity test because the law sees peace in the family as more important than the father knowing whether the kids are his or not.
>not liking the best GTA V armored car
Megane RS has a 1.8
Angry Ant reporting in
at least france still has cars unlike sweden lmao!!!!!
You get raped out of your ass by taxes for anything over 200hp. And they're starting to battering down old cars too.
Feels bad man. And the ecofascists are pushing so hard for autonomous/electric cars.
>implying I'm from sweden
Nice bait though, 3/10
X04 series Peugeot were great cars.
Comfy cruisers with million mile diesel engines, great ground clearance, and nice riding suspension.
Better than Mercedes in many ways.
Worse in others too.
It all went wrong with the 205 as far as I'm concerned.
ARGGHHH NO FRENCH CARS ARE FRENCH WTF THEY SUCK BECAUSE THEY ARE FRENCH BUY GEEERMAAAAN
>talking about you
>hurr durr everything is about me
with that attitutde you could only be german or american
The panels on the doors are a nice idea; it's just a shame that they look so awful. That fugly front end's not exactly helping either.
>That fugly front end's not exactly helping either.
wow you take that back
the only thing is a lack of 4x4 or at least more power
>tfw no Cactus VTS
I just like that they had the balls to produce it.
>didn't built it because Citroen had no AWD avaivable
wow gg
Fuck the kadjar. I will go to my grave cursing that 1.2L mobile massive dashboard with my last breath.
Absolute piece of shit.

Nope, just the Clio RS with its disappointment of a DCT
Step it up, bitch.
This is the proper big French car

just why

Hit and a miss, try again baguette
French cars are like french women
Nice to look at and to be inside but otherwise unreliable, flaky and prone to leaking out of their holes.
the interior in that car is okay, the infotainment is trash, and the rubber panels are expensive to replace
i work at a french rental place and i quite liked the ford C-max, automatic, android car play, okay sound, keyless entry, power trunk (french cars haven't discovered that yet)
sold same car today for 400 euros
I never understood the power trunk lid because what's the point of it? Is it because people wanna be lazy shits? I think it is
Comfy.
Also, Why are the door handles so prone to breaking in these ?
>I never understood the because what's the point of it? Is it because people wanna be lazy shits? I think it is
Odd place to put a spare
Bonjour
*blep*
Good taste, mang. I have the VTS tho
yo
>308 GTI is only 2600lbs
That's pretty good, I always though it was pigfat like the Focus RS
... is that a wooden pipe on the left of the engine???
new renault megane rs looks good.

I have a french car.
It's shit, the electronics might as well not be connected.
>horsepower
When you can have MANPOWER!
>In france, men cannot order a paternity test because the law sees peace in the family as more important than the father knowing whether the kids are his or not
Don't be a cuckold ?
Step aside.
No, it's coolant line made of orange plastic.
I can't stop laughing at that only guy scolding while everyone else looks happy as fuck.
...
My hart
I own a 106 GTi, top tier meme cars.
925 kg 118 hp
Really want an Alpine a310
Who doesn't?
I have a french car.
I've had it for over 6 years and not a single problem.
What shitbox did you get?
Nah, to be proper French comfy, it has to be distinctive and angular, suspension like a water bed, big for the sake of it.
Lastly, it has to be a Citroen.
big hon hon
i have a twingo. ask me anything
How hard would it be to fix up an old craigslist Renault 4L ?
Cheapest classic car in France
no rust means not a hard job at all
as an american i don't know much about french cars but i really like Nissan a lot and it's really funny that they get so much hate even though they have made some really cool shit for fair prices so i can only assume that's how the europeans view a company like Renault
Renault went mad during the mid-2000s
>detuned F4R
lmao
Get in line.
Please do not put Renault and Nissan in the same sentence, unless you want to talk about Hewhomustnotbenamed.
> rubber
> expensive to replace
niqqa wut
See you on the Autoroute A9 slowpoke.
surprisingly good car
get your hands on one if you ever get the chance
it'd be cool if Nissan rebadged Renaults and sold them like Versa/Sentras in the states. make em as cheap as possible and put quirky colors on them so college girls get em
This one.
You americans already failed our automobile industry in the past. You only have yourselves to blame now.
>pic related was cancelled because of dwindling sales in the US
They share platforms already, the Juke sits on the same chassis as the Captur (lifted Clio) for example.
I think the Nissans usually get different engines though.
Peugeot is supposedly coming back to the US by 2020. How reliable are they? Their newer interiors are fucking amazing.
they're just standard volks or ford now
Pretty much middle of the pack, and yeah they have some kino interiors.
>comfy interior
>boosted to hell and back. Engine won't last past 200k+ km without issues
Electrical problems x 1000

France is the absolute state of car hate.
PSA is as reliable as a Maserati.
Same goes for Renault/Citroen
Can we just kill all eurotrash politicians lol
>56%
«Coucou»
I love this one
Saw a red gt pack a310 in my hometown a few month ago and i couldnt believe it
+
I know an alpine gta owner and it is so good
No, we don't. We didn't get yet, and probably never will, because it's not in demand.
>t. romanian
>needing big engines
overcompensating for something are we
i think peugeot has some 2.0 still
mine's a 2.2
because fuck you thats why
this
fuck this country
some are worse tho like singapour
Been into this 1.4 shitbox for 7 years and ~100k miles. I'm driving it like a complete asshole with ABS disabled, broke multiple parts of it by rallying through forest paths, been airbagless for years, broke 1 speakers from blasting music too loud, broke the handbrake by pulling it too much I guess, I fixed various parts with glue and duct tape, I ran it without oil for several dozen kilometers, had a tire explode at >100km on country roads but miraculously survived, spun out many times on mountain roads trying to inertia drift when it was raining hard, I've had sex in the back seats, I've spilled used cooking oil in the trunk, I've moved over 10 times and lugged literal tons of material and furniture in its back, I've driven it through the night naked and with the headlights turned off, I've drove it drunk, I've drove it wasted, I went on >500km trips with it, I've slept on the beach with it...
Lads... I don't want to let her go.
But the new French regulations will force her from my arms.
What are the French up to?
Are they putting those scrappage schemes into law? And how does a tiny Peugeot with an equally tiny engine violate them?
Reminds me of my first car, a tiny Citroen, had it for years. I've slept in it, alone and with others, I've split used engine oil in the boot, I whizzed through country roads because it barely had the power for motorways, spun out into a signpost and only damaged the rear bumper, the clutch and parking brake were on their last legs but what killed it was that the gearbox was almost fucked; it hated 1st and 2nd, it sounded like a walrus giving birth to agricultural equipment
And yet, I loved her. Don't lose here until you have to...
they triple the number of checks on the mandatory biyearly checklist
which pretty much means any car that isn't a >2010 bloated electronic spaceship and well maintained will be pushed off the roads
and since the number of checks triples, the cost to do this mandatory check will also triple, from about 50€ to about 150€ which is just the extra "fuck you" factor for fun
>I've driven it through the night naked and with the headlights turned off
Electrical gremlins exist, but they're not remotely as bad as people would say.
Petrol engines all suck, diesels are solid. That said, a well-maintained EP6 will last you 200k+ km. Engines generally are not very powerful, pic related is the complete list of engines installed in new 3008.
There's no AWD, and their solution is to go hybrid. It could be awesome if done right (100KW motor on each axle in default configuration, plus ICE), but it's PSA so I don't expect anything.
