I did something similar in a 2CV a few years ago although not from the roof but from the backseat. every controls routed under the front seat so people walking by wouldn't see it. The look people walking by gave me will remain in my memory for quite a while...

c'mon guys, he's got BUCKET SEATS! it's a race car, that's why it's not road-legal!

I work in a fishmongering business andI’d love to get an EV chassis-cab dually truck with about 200miles of range and provision for extra batteries for the auxiliaries such as a roof-mounted cooling unit but here in europe I think the main restriction comes from the fact that above 3.5 metric tons (about 7000pounds)…

the cluster is above the wheel so no visibility problems and this cockpit design (same as in the 208 & 308) is lauded as one of the best in terms of ergonomics, all brands included, by most of the press...

i think its the support rails for the trunk cover, folded up

For Europeans: Citroen 2cv and Saxo, Peugeot 106 or 306, Renault 5's and so many 90's and early 2000's hatchbacks!

Corsica is the stage where WRC drivers get honked at by 50 yo. Chain-smoking corsican dudes complaining about the bloody “continental” slowpokes before overtaking them inside a hairpin turn in a rusted out Citroën Saxo...

My job is to drive a box truck in Paris where most of the streets are quite narrow. I will do my absolute  best not to touch your car if you’ve made the polite effort to park decently. Park like a douche, you may have to replace a mirror sooner than expected. In this case it’s a matter of respect towards community: if…

The best part is that cops in patrol cars managed to lose sight of a damn school bus...

Looks good the fist years and then they start having lots of electricak gremlins... There’s a reason why people use the expressuon ‘Renault’s Christmas tree’

IMHO this was mainly designed to be sold in european cities such as London or Paris where there’s a lot of incentives for these: tax rebates, free street parking, free charging, being allowed to circulate even on peak pollution days... Even if the hybrid part is just there for show

Damn that kid is a failure to Darwin’s law...
that being said, something similar happened to me few months ago driving a box truck, I was doing about 50Kph (30mph) passing an intersection along with other cars, being on the far right lane when I saw a flash of bright green on the far right of the windshield. Instant…

Mine happened in France. Not really in-car but still.

It lives in Paris man, we do not care wether it’s a 200k € car or a 500€ car. If we have to bump it a bit to fit in a parking space, we will. Not even a second thought given about it.

In my former job, I used to drive 2CV’s with tourists, giving guided tours. Most of the other guides being unable to do anything more than turn the key in the ignition and pray for the engine to start, I was quite often also employed as a sort of roadside assistance when we had large groupes requiring sometimes up to…

France’s main energy source are nuclear plants and dams...

Typical riding style of any pizza delivery boy in any major french city. Reduced life expectancy and natural selection are part of the contract tho...

Belgium. 90℅ flat with heavy traffic, grey skies and boring farmland and bad roads compared to their neighbors. If it wasn’t for the bad roads and the traffic i’d go through it in full autobahn mode to make it disappear faster

It is kind of a quick release system. Peugeots and Citroëns from this era had a an orientable rear suspension based on 4 flexible rubber bushings allowing the wheels to turn a bit during hard cornering. Very nice in terms of handling but not really made to whack a curb at full blast...
