Well almost. I'm in a caltex vortex (their premium brand fuels) competition to win one, and am thus buying fuel $22 at a time...with a 65 litre tank, that can be repeated 4 times in a day if desired.

Regardless, I'd be happy to win it!
 
I think I enjoyed that 2.0 L engine in a Citroen, I still dream about it

A bench mark for everything North America does NOT have.

I say yes! (or, Wi wi). I love Peugeots, Renaults, Citroens, etc. They all look fontastic. I have a good memory of French cars too: When I was little, my dad had up to 5 Renault Alliances all at once, most of which he used as parts cars to keep 2 of them going. Haha. He said those things got crazy gas mileage. The last Renault Alliance I saw was about 6 years ago, and it was MINT. It was also for sale, and I'm surprised my dad didn't buy it. That was the last French car I saw in this country... My wife was in France 2 years ago; she stayed with some friends that lived there. Of course, I asked what kind of car they had

she said "The one with the lion on the logo". I'd totally buy a car with a lion on it!

Well, maybe Renault will decide to use Nissan as a way of selling French cars in the USA.

That in mind, the only French cars I ever heard of being reliable were Peugeot models.
