No, I never suggested it was. Is that how some people enjoy themselves then? I don't get it at all and am happier for it.

We have an odd thing in Dubai where the local untermenschen post up fictional cars or bikes for sale with crazily low prices, like a BMW HP4 Race for 5k or something. What's their endgame? I don't get it.

I had one of those bollocks mock interviews the schools used to run at a Renault dealership. The bloke picked us up in a top spec Safrane, I think it was a champagne type colour. I was mightily impressed, what luxury! He did a couple of ballsy overtakes which the V6 managed with ease.

Can’t remember the last time I saw one. Probably seen more Vel Satis and Avantimes around than I have Safranes.

I used to work for a company that provided IT services to other companies. The bloke in charge at one of our customers had a Safrane as his company car because “it’s better than any of that German rubbish”. He was an insufferable cunt.

I love the A2. It was 15 years ahead of its time from a design and construction perspective. And it was also leaps and bounds better than the Mk1 A Class with which it competed.

Here's a boring dcr spam chariot with a good unusual spec (big glass roof :P ), though I think it might have had a factory fitted nav originally because of the aerial fitted;
