90%.
I was lucky with the CX power steering name in the UK (did not know that one) and was wrong with the GS unusual powerplant (thought but that probably was a single rotor in the M35).

I didn't have high hopes for this one - French cars are not really my thing - but I managed 90%; only failed on the Peugeot 204 designer Crying or Very sad

Surprised myself with 80%. I didn't get the Peugeot 404 rally wins, and the year of introduction for the 505.

70% and I hate French cars too. Worryingly this is better than I did on the previous British cars quiz where I only got 60%.
Shoot me now!

I know nothing about French cars and I've just proved it!
50% and that's five lucky guesses!
