      You wouldn't notice those these days.
      Best to use hand signals.

        We had a Peugeot once, quirky was the kindest way to describe it. All the controls were in different positions to the rest of the world and operated the wrong way. I used to put the wipers on when turning. It was only when I came to sell it the buyer showed me how to get the fog lights on, had to pull the rotary switch hidden under the dashboard, designed for people of Toulouse-Lautrec stature.

          Nonono...it's the rest of the world's cars that are the wrong way around :biggrin:

          Must admit that it still takes me half an hour to find the bonnet release lever on mine :redface:

            Bonnet release lever, now there's a novelty.
            I wonder if my car has one of those. :scratch:

              They may be quirky but that is a very cute design.

                Obviously another strange French quirk is the fact they forgot the roof.

                      Shouldn't that be Mr Spock? I thought DR. Spock was someone different.

                          Imagine if someone were to put that on display at a Trekkies convention. Now that would be a good laugh. They'd all throw a thrombo over it.
