Re: Whilst everyone is quick to insult French cars...

"... please remember that the French do, at least, have a motor industry."

Very true - only the French could come up with something like, say, the Mk.II Megane, but with the best will in the world, the electrics in French cars are usually lousy, especially if said electrics are by Magneti-Marelli (experience talking here!)

OTOH, if you drive, or have driven, a French car then you'll understand why cars are often referred to as 'she' - expensive, temperamental and frequently high maintainence :-)

(disclaimer: I own a Clio, so I'm allowed to insult French cars - it's part and parcel of being a Renault owner ;-) )

Whilst everyone is quick to insult French cars...

... please remember that the French do, at least, have a motor industry. (Don't bother pointing out the British motor industry's few remaining companies - I said "industry", not "7 men in an oversized shed building four cars a year" - or the handful of foreign companies using British labour.)

Got the name right

Here in the Greater Antipodes, the word 'Cactus' equates to dead / stuffed / buggered / etc. From the look of the front of this vehicle, the Froggies have obviously been trawling through Oz dictionaries and have got the name spot on!

Mine's the one with the road kill Skippy in the pocket.
