I have to admit the newest french car I owned was a 2 litre 306 in Diablo red - it was great. No issues. The 505 I had was brilliant. As was the other 306. And the 205.
Fair points though, all the french things post 2001 are poo. Except some Renault Sport offerings.
I think it's a massive shame that modern citroens are so dull. Their current efforts are to superficial to be really innovative or interesting.

Peugeot built a legendary diesel engine and stuck to pretty much the same design for decades, so much so, I believe Nissan created something extremely similar but significantly more efficient.
Citroen haven't built a decent car for years and had a period in the 90's where the finishing on the car was substandard even when compared to British cars produced in the midlands in the 60's, 70's and 80's.
Renault - after the Sport Spider there's been nothing of any real note.
I accept that their concept cars have been interesting over the years, but their cars are abominations.
