No offence intended to all you closet Francophiles!
Ouch! Bugattis (all of em) Delahaye , Delage, Panhards, DS, SM, Traction, M35, CX, all the Alpines, various Matras, anything Gordini, peugeots 404 (esp the wonderful convertible),
504 coupe, Salmsons, several Hotchkiss, Simca coupes (very cute) to name a few- so the French have knocked up one or two half decent cars- plus a massive motor racing heritage .
