chris330 0 Posted March 13, 2003 Hmm... I have to say I dont like the French as they have never given me any reason to. This silly bitching however with regard to Freedom Fries instead of French Fries is probably some plot by a large potatoe harvester in the US to get people to buy Freedom Fries in some attempt to hurt the French. Not that hurting the French would be a bad thing (joke) it's just that this bitching is beginning to sound like playground politics being played out over the world stage. Not a terribly convincing way to assure anyone you know what you are doing (either side). Lets hope the hostilities in the world amount to no more than the Freedom Fries incident.

However, the Clio sport 172 is a much better car than the Clio V6 - too heavy and unpredictable - but not in the american way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Balschoiw 0 Posted March 14, 2003 You wished to have one of the 2CV Sahara versions with 2 engines. One for the front tires and one for the rear tires. No joke. They are very rare and high priced. Although my favourite still is the "godess" the DS. One day when I really have a lot of time I will get me one for renovation. Isn´t she lovely ?

It's up there with the Citroen Sport Maserati, Ferrari 250 GT Lusso and the Super Seven. By the way - Audi has announced the "brake through inovation" : the "turning lights" ! Guess which car had that feature first! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But hey, you never know. I saw a Lada here in Canada a few years ago (Yes, I went up to it and one of the side window beams had "Lada" in cyrillic) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
