Well today whilst i was at work i get talking to a customer about the Fiesta ST and he sounds interested but not really uptodate on modern cars by the sounds of it as:

I was saying that everything was set to buy an ST except i cannot get a decent insurance...

so his reply was:

No you dont want to buy a Ford, you want to buy a Pug 206 Diesel... (now this is the funny part) as he quotes; it will hold a Porsche 911...

Well as you can imagine i just couldn't contain myself... i had to really keep it in until he had gone as i was ready to burst at his statement...

Pug 206TD vs Porsche 911 now... that really would be funny.

I just wanted to share my story with everyone as i felt it really was funny and sums alot of ppl up... they dont have a god damn clue about cars thats why they buy total junk like KIA etc etc

It's not Renault themselves, but the people who build their motorsport engines. I am reliably informed they all have rather strong french accents.
