    Let me tell you something about the interior or french cars.


    Yes there are lots of electronics in modern ones , but at least , It's better than Tesla (and a specific jaguar).


    And if this is too much electronics , then , just take a look at the C15 and the 104 Z , they have only the important things , if this is what you want

    Well, everyone knows Tesla sucks. (Mainly because of Elon Musk and their fucking touchscreens)

    And i also meant that their interior is better than the one of the jaguar XKR .


    And it depends on the car's trim : A Citroën C15 and a Peugeot 104 A are supposed to be very cheap so they just have the minimal required . But if you have a Citroën C6 , then it will have a bit more functions

    You don't need one of both to get simplicity,

    You're mentioning cars that even me, barely see, ok I guess I see the C15 once in a while, the 104? We don't see them, like....where do we even find this? but again you're kinda bad in opinion at defending french cars, I don't advice a 104 Z or a C15 because that would be a pain in the ass, you know that C15s are abused real bad like S chassis nissans right? or I guess even worse than that.

    Here's the simplicity :

    I advice reliable french daily drivers where parts are everywhere and that it's not an "uncommon" vehicle so i'm not mentioning french reliable cars that are uncommon for the french market.
    Just get something like a 106, 206, 306, for Peugeot
    For Renault, If you want a car that just do better than any kei cars in the world, take a Twingo 1(It's a very subjective opinion of mine but I see it that way for me)
    Clio 1
    Mégane 1
    Laguna 1
    For Citroen there is the Saxo, ZX, Xsara, Xantia.

    If someone want a reliable french car, like I mentioned, the cars etc, they gotta get something that you see everyday, that is very common and not very specific, reliable and that parts are everywhere,

    Every cars from the 70s are close to have the bare minimum.

    104 are quite common in Tunisia (like the 404 pick-up).

    What i'm saying is that the interior's simplicity on a french depends on the car's trim. Low trim one are more simple than Toyotas (excluding the 2cv) . And high trim one have more things than Rolls-Royce .


    Also , when you Say Twingos are gonna be collectible , are you also talking about Mk1s ?

    Well a little Coupe with a V8 the size of the car it self with a manual and RWD is miles better than a crappy turbo I3 Renault that will break after 6 miles. Sure SUVs suck but everybody makes those now, Muscle cars all day.

    Bud, JDM fanboys are the worst in the Car Community. Any performance vehicle Citroen has ever put out has no hope of beating something along the lines of a Chevrolet, Dodge, or Ford. Bet a Camaro would turn better than crappy Renault. Not to mention the quarter mile. American cars are better in every way than French cars. There's no point in arguing because it's true.

    Dude why did you just randomly mention JDM lol
    I personally like german cars. I mean, reliable, fast, cool, they got it all. Not some fuel hungry V8s or hatchbacks that simulate the BeamNG break all parts button.
    Summary, idk why this kind of question was brought up in the first place. Everyone has their opinions. And that’s my opinion.

    Bruh , Renault isn't the only french brand . They are the one who did the Turbocharger if you didn't know. And , sure Tce engine sucks, but older one were indestructible .


    In handling , most Citroën would beat American cars with the hydropneumatic. Plus , how could a boat from America could be better at handling ?
