Comments on: Hey America – Why No French & Italian Cars? http://www.automopedia.org/2009/02/18/why-no-french-cars/ Tue, 07 Feb 2012 17:47:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: automopedia http://www.automopedia.org/2009/02/18/why-no-french-cars/comment-page-1/#comment-1449 automopedia Wed, 21 Apr 2010 04:18:51 +0000 http://www.automopedia.org/?p=1108#comment-1449 I wrote this piece prior to the official Fiat Chrysler deal, and I am pretty sure Smart is at least part German, as they are owned by Mercedes Benz. My point was a more ass-appeal auto anyway - you see far more american (obvi) and japanese cars on the roads here then you see others - ie for every one ferrari or even smart car you see there are hundreds, maybe even thousands of hondas, etc. I wrote this piece prior to the official Fiat Chrysler deal, and I am pretty sure Smart is at least part German, as they are owned by Mercedes Benz.

If you are travelling to France, hire a Renault Laguna turbo and you will want to take it home! They are fast, very smooth and lovely to drive in all conditions! They also stand up well to our Australian outback roads and mountainous areas. Renault’s are the #2 seller in Europe after VW.
