Why don't you steer us in the direction of all these French cars that are constructed with so much integrity they are actually exported anywhere outside of Europe? Links are helpful, especially if you want to make an argument.
Your arrogance is stunning. Attacking me because my English is not so good??? You must feel like a real man right now.
I've not insulted you for your poor english, that's what your signature says, verbatim: 'sorry for my crappy english'
French carmakers have production plants in South-America, Asia, ....
They sell cars all over the world. Do the research yourself but because you insist for a link you can start
here
Renault is the biggest shareholder in Nissan and is in that way also present on the North-American market.
No need to discuss this further -- you have a dislike for anything that is French so all the facts or links are not going to convince you that the French carmakers are global players.
I am aware of Carlos Ghosn and Nissan, and now their questonable materials usage under his direction, incidentally, but what I find most interesting is that you think I'm bashing the French. Wtf? I wouldn't bash the French as a generalization anymore than I would bash Americans or Canadians or whomever, I'm not like that.
Personally, I'm not a big Ford fan, to cite an American automaker, and GM has done some disgusting things, too, but at least they're allowed to be sold in the US. Renault isn't anymore due to productions like Le Car that I mentioned earlier, so, no, I haven't driven a Renault car in the last decade. I wouldn't honestly have a problem with driving one, if I were to have one available, and I wouldn't have a problem looking twice if referred to one by a knowledgeable individual or a respected publication, etc.
To finish up, I'd like to add that, from that list, Ford is an American company, as we all know, and Vauxhall, a British company, as you know, is now owned by GM.
Of those cars listed with which I am familiar, I'd pich the Volkswagen GolfGTI, because I think VW rocks
