Renault Industries and the gendarmerie think that the guy more or less invented the story - maybe he realized he had been caught by an automatic radar and decided to call himself the gendarmes (troopers)to avoid a very costly speed ticket and driving license confiscation ?
Usually speed limiters are automatically disconnected when you brake, and there are also manual disconnecting systems. It's rather bizarre that both systems failed at the same time, only to work normally 60 minutes after...

The nose is well. not finished. Looks like a first sketch. The hood and top are 1960's space age. The rear is the face of one of the robots from Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow.

I was over in Italy in May, and I saw these all over the place. They are the CUTEST cars I've ever seen, and they're supposed to be introduced here in 2006. I WANT one!

Last time I was in Europe, I had a rental Renault with one of the 'smart card' ignition keys. Arriving at a meeting, I was both preoccupied and jet-lagged, and merely pulled the card out of its slot after parking. A couple hours later, a worried colleague came to find me to say that my car was still running. Went out and, sure enough, the damn thing was rumbling merrily away without the key in it. Seems you have to press a special button to turn the sumbitch off. How French!

Renault should be banned from building anything or at least kept from exporting their trash!
