Renault Dealer in France: I have never seen a 197 **IRONY**

[Mike]

No joke.

I went into a dealer down here in some random village I passed through as I realised I forgot to get a spare set of bulbs which is a legal requirement.

When the guy asked me what car it was for, I replied a 197, he said "What a ClioSport? Do you have it here?" I said that it was outside, he then said to two of his colleagues "This guy has a clio 197, and it is outside!"

They were all over it like a rash - and he said he'd never seen one in real life lol!

I am shocked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Was quite an honour though

1.55 for V Power, best fill up in brighty just before we leave to keep french fill ups to a minimum lol

What a bizarre twist to the story.

Just went down to get deux baguettes et deux croissants, and look what was parked outside the baker.....the best ever stickers and by far my favourite 200 I have ever seen....





Needless to say, a flyer was stuck on the car!!!!!

I melted the instant I saw it! :001_tt1::001_tt1::001_tt1::001_tt1::001_tt1:
