In France you either have people who are driving Miss Daisy or those who are qualifying for the Rally Monte Carlo (very much irrespective of the cars they drive) πππ»
No idea how it drives but itβs a bit of a βwhy the h*** notβ type of vehicle that appeals ππ¦Ύ
I must tell you the story one day about friends of mine driving through France in five hired Renault 5βs in convoy !

.. or another rally raid. Because of the lightness of the car, the relative high power (75+ hp) and the adjustments made chassis-wise, this 205 can get thru any field or desert. Even with two wheel drive. By the looks of it , this one has been used to the fullest, what a machine!
Wasnβt aware of this ππ» Makes a lot of sense to use the car for that and they probably are plentiful enough for it, too ππ»
