My best car was the Ford Mondeo with a freaking 5-year warranty with 2 years of free servicing from mid-2000s ! You can't find anything like that now.
Thirsty as fuck but then offset by the warranty, and the handling was to die for.

That's because Ford and GM cars are designed in Germany. Only rhd cars are manufactured in the UK.

I'll never put my money on anything mechanical originating from latin Europe.

However the Latin Europe brands dominate the luxury industry.

Some French tech companies (esp pharma, biotech and food processing) have been world leaders for a while

Please buy french cars. Please.

Only buy French cars when you have a LOT of money to afford a trophy, high maintenance, uncommonly known cars. High maintenance mainly bcoz it will be quite inconvenient to service/maintain the cars due to inaccessibility in their international service centres.

Then please go ahead and buy french products. They are known to be overrated and expensive while not giving much in quality. How dumb can you get?

I welcome you to act against your own interest and to your own detriment and buy french.

You cannot force your personal perception/mindset on others. Learn to respect other people's freedom of choice(eg.in religion, buying things, etc). I choose to support French products now, especially their President Butter bcoz it tastes Yummy. Also bcoz I am on Macron's side, I do not support a group of ppl who thinks it is ok to behead others. Peace.

this is the problem of sinkies seeing the world through sinkie and PAP lens, the sinkie view is gold standard. French cars are shits with low or no resale value, whereas German and Jap cars are high resale value whih deserves a premium. You go tell ang moh that a 5 room HDB next to MRT and Market with 90 yrs lease left is worthy of investment than a 60 yr old walk up flat in oxley road.

many sinkies have fond memories of this french product.

The AMX13 aka SM1 in SAF has a Detroit Diesel engine. Other than the external shell, most other stuffs are not original French origins.

While those served in saf are peacetime but saf brought AMX13 because the Jews recommended to SAF as it cheap and go enough for the region.

The AMX-13 original version served the SAF until the late 1980s, by which time most of them were over 30 years old. For a 30 year old tank of french engineering to run for so long and function effectively is a testament to french mechanical design. Which the poster obviously know nothing about. The SM1 had a competition for the re engining, and the French version was a close runner up. I believe the French entry was a Potez diesel engine, and a French FCS and laser rangefinder. Which would have made the AMX-13 still a french design. But the SAF decided to go with the detriot diesel with the ZF transmission for some commonality with the M113.

While those served in saf are peacetime but saf brought AMX13 because the Jews recommended to SAF as it cheap and go enough for the region.

The jews recommended to the SAF and actually conned Keng Swee and all the other gabra SAF senior staff. The AMX-13 is not the correct armour vehicle for S'pore. But the Jews bought 400 of the AMX-13s because at that time, France was the only country willing to sell them any armour. They used the AMX on the 6 day war and discovered the thing was a death trap. Gun too weak to defeat T-55 and armour too light. SO, how to get rid of them? Why, just con the SAF into buying them, which we did. The correct vehicle for us is a wheeled AFV. 4 X or 6X. Armed with a 90mm or 105mm low recoil gun. The SIBMAS would have been a better fit or something smaller. Like a Panhard.
