It’s a ‘89 Pao. All model years are basically the same, this one's a little modified. Just wheels, springs, exhaust and some exterior stuff really. It's pretty stock otherwise. 

I don’t think Renault will even be around after 2020. They would need double the budget now to be competitive and a new team boss. I’m pretty sure Renault management will not do either of those so they will just give up. They've been talking about catching up to the top 3 for years, but they are still solid mid pack…

Wait, what? How? Why? 

My daughter has already claimed it for when she turns 18, so I guess it more or less a forever car for our family. 

I'm going to print this out and put it on my coffee table. 

Light offroading is when you break the car sometimes, but don’t roll the car.

I somehow think that my Pao speedo is already a lot better than that, maybe they updated it later? I can easily read the speedo at night and there are no leds in there as far as I can tell.

You have to make the windows smaller now, because the grille always needs to be bigger than the windows. Come on, it's 2019 man... 

How about getting air in a Renault Kangoo 4x4? I was driving a “Greenlane” and was trying to keep up with an AMG G-wagen because I didn’t have a navigator or the route. We had to take a shortcut trough an empty waterway because there was a cycling event on the road we had to cross. It ended up like a bit of a rally…

How fast do you think it would charge my phone? 

Don't ever use a high lift jack like they did. 

Tom Coronel has the best coverage from inside the rally on youtube, they are two brothers and they typically break down and struggle a lot but always push on.

Imagine a group of teslas blocking the only gas station in a 250 mile radius. Would that be funny? 

That works. So far I’m having a little trouble finding Pao parts here in Europe. I needed an oil filter for the transmission. Nope, can’t get it.

When I had to wait 3 month to buy a new car after an insurance payout, I used the money they provided for temporary transport to buy a used car. This was about 500dollars, so I told my friend we would go and look up the cheapest car on our Craigslist (or similar in Europe) within a 10 mile radius and buy that…

Well, the interior looks great and it runs.

I have a similar problem smart jalop might solve. They stoke my nav and heater controls, but ripped it out so hard that the whole wireloom would have to be replaced to fix it. It’s a 7000dollar repair, so that’s out of the question.

What if the bad guy couldn't get a gun on every corner? 

I learned the hard way that some people need more than one car. I'm not very lucky when it comes to cars. They break, blow up, are set on fire or get stolen or won't start. You do get used to this. But it helps a lot if you have more than one car. I now own 3 cars and my wife doesn't have a license. I need those 2 as…

I had a boss with a house in France who rented a convertible Amsterdam, drove it to Nice and then forgot about the car. When we were visiting his house with some coworkers, two of them were (t)asked to drive the car back to Amsterdam. That’s about 800miles, and it was February I think. We put the top down for them, as…
