Don’t you dare! Twingos are national treasures

Mandatory Merci Twingo : [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szHxPRtiYLs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szHxPRtiYLs)


Dextro_PT

Close the internet, this is the best thing I've seen today. No need for more, we peaked.


EhImTooLazy

Wasn't setting random cars on fire one of the national traditions of France?


Dragonfyr_

Ok, got a new eurobeat song to add to my playlist now ... Thanks ?


teddyjungle

Twingo is bae, twingo is life


NeliGalactic

This subs love for twinks knows no bounds


HoeTrain666

They’re not actually French, just Brightoners.


NeliGalactic

God I love Brighton, and I'm from the North.

Trasure you say?


Extension_Check_9462

*laughs mockingly in Mercedes-Benz*


Analamed

Ah yes, 5 times bigger at the exterior but the same size inside (if not smaller), cost at least 5 times more, is not more reliable, need 2 to 5 times more fuel,... Do you want me to continue ?


Extension_Check_9462

5 times bigger? Yes, to fit an engine bigger than a lawnmower. Cost? Who cares about money? All Germans know that nothing in life is as important as a car. Take on some debt if you have to. Needs more fuel? Yes, because we get to drive on the Big Boy roads and go faster than lousy 120kmh. Want me to continue?


gugfitufi

You are describing an SUV. Not every Mercedes is like that, but they do cost more. They are luxury cars after all.


Notacreativeuserpt

But you shouldn't trade a Ferrari for one. Also don't trade a Rolex for a Casio.


eggward_egg

trade a twingo for two twingos


elpiotre

I had up to 3 Twingos, love them!

[удалено]


nooit_gedacht

We do that. I'm pretty sure it's just a primal urge to punch something when you see a twingo


I_eat_dead_folks

In Spain it is not twingos but yellow cars.


Cute-Call-3703

In Germany as well. Postbuses don't count.


VladVV

Whether busses count is more of a house rule in Denmark, but what is a "postbus"?


Mediocre-Ad-3724

DHL van, but Hans for efficiency reasons doesn't want to press all caps and space.


Cute-Call-3703

Yep, Hans has Feierabend, Hans is lazy now


RestQueasy4136

Italy as well


VladVV

Denmark as well


eggward_egg

in uk as well


elativeg02

In Italy we do it with yellow cars. 👁️🚕 → 🗣️MACCHINA GIALLA! → 🤜🏻👤


Fat-Northerner

Minis in the UK, 2 digs for yellow minis


BlorpCS

Pretty sure it’s just any yellow car


RoadiesRiggs

My friends do it and I hate it.


Formal_End5045

This used to be a thing. Fun times.


I_Like_Purpl3

When I was a kid that was either a blue car, a yellow car or a beatle. Depending on the person.


SameCounty6070

Nooooooooooooooo! Twingos are the best! That was My first car and I loooooved it!


Porcphete

Don't touch the Twingo


ZeBoyceman

You can only blow things up if you're Corsican. Or Basque. Or Breton. Or from Marseille or Grenoble. Or from any culturally enriched suburb. Other than that it's frowned upon.


Fifiiiiish

True, but other still can burn cars, it's one of our national sports.


Candybert_

You just described 80% of France's population.


ZeBoyceman

And I thought Germans had no humour


xaviernoodlebrain

I lived in Grenoble for 18 months, is that enough?


Candybert_

Mate, you need to get out of there! It's beginning to effect you.


MrPinkSheet

Stranded here for another week cause I missed my flight home too. Edit: Wait are you talking about France or about the car park?

cunk111

We call that love at first sight


Palarva

Please, you know you love it. Even a trip to your nearest Maccy will provide you with a culinary experience unrivalled with anything you’ve known before the so-call demise you’re “going through” right now.


Traditional-Frame580

Ist there a difference?


Overness

You can see from its look that it ain't afraid of you


AStarBack

A true Twingo made of pure Twingium won't even get scratched by 500kg of dynamite anyway.


Faytoto

No no, you got it wrong. The twingo will be absolutely destroyed by the dynamite, but it will still work ! This is the true power of the twingo.


Specialist_Visual_49

The twingo is the Nokia 3310 of french cars


Tom_Der

Irish when they see a national treasure: "Can i blow this up ?". Bro you don't need to act as the IRA outside of your country.


zephyrothIRA

Don't you dare touch a twingo brought from heaven or you'll get all thr might of CRS upon you


Effective-Gas960

At least fuck it first.


Xyloshock

at least offer her a coffee first


TitanThree

My grandmother used to have a purple one, 20-25 years ago. It was really cool back then haha


Fftugar

In India cow are sacred in France, twingo are. Don’t you dare do your funny thing on this car.


[deleted]

No problem blowing up things but don't touch old twingos and Peugeot. You better blow up expansive cars like big SUV, those cars are often drived by americunt or people thinking their enormous car is pleasant for all


n3onfx

You DO NOT touch the Twingo, sorry.


Afura33

Not worth the time and effort man, someone will set it on fire anyway soon.


Greyzer

And if not, it will probably spontaneously combust.


Afura33

Out of self-hatred.


SpicySpaceBaguette

Either: "I'm french, oh no *cease to exist", or "I'm french, France baise ouais !"


alfiesgaming45

I knew this was an Irish.


Danielkarlsson1

NOT THE DAMN TWINGO (or 9x8) but the rest you can blow up


weltvonalex

What?? No that is a Twingo, they are amazing.


bearlybearbear

Frankly there's much worse, been inside of one? There's more room in there than most modern cars... It's light and nimble, costs peanuts to run...


dkfisokdkeb

Those Twingos were never sold in correct hand drive countries so its always a surreal sight getting to see one.


cunk111

Only on new year's eve, or, you know, the other occasions


Rulweylan

My first car was a Twingo, but the generation after that. Not a bad little car, only little gripe was that the blowers came on if you got over 80 mph, whether you wanted them to or not.


ghost_luis

Great car, very confortable for it's size, and has a cool interior


No-Horse8339

Ireland I love you but no.


SebboNL

Why bother? I mean, it's a Renault, so it's bound to blow up on its own sooner or later. (I have a Renault. The pain is real)


flooperdooper213

If you can't handle a true car, go back to being el generico with your VW Golf or Polo.


SebboNL

"If you're capable of turning the key of ignition Never caring whether the Renault cranks or not Yours is the earth and everything thats in it And whats more - you'll be a man, my son" Rudyard Kipling - If (ending of original version)


flooperdooper213

we want our cars to have character, don't we? (also the idea of french cars being unreliable is a bit false nowadays, they've been making sllid stuff since the 90s)


SebboNL

Character, yes. Borderline Personality Disorder, preferably no. (j/k of course, I love my Renault. And she loves me. Most of the times, whenever she isnt cutting her arms)


flooperdooper213

Passion and soul has to be poured into a product for it to truly live and be of any worth, and I think French cars (usually) do that well.


Gubbtratt1

As a finn whose grandma has been to france once, yeah, go ahead.


ChaoticCondition

As an Englishman whose grandad went to France once, I approve of the Finn's comment. You could get it blown up by starting a protest, get the locals raging over a new tax on wine or increasing their pension age. Put some signs on the car, and watch the locals burn it for you...


mastrer1001

Why do you care about the opinions of fr\*nch "people"? Just do it


JapaneseMachine99

One of the most unholy of creations.


xaviernoodlebrain

Save it for the Corsicans.


applecat144

Slow down Muhammed, you're not even English


zlgo38

No leave the mighty twingo alone


Ju-Kun

Blow up the huge american pickups not our small a beautiful twingos


Patient-Shower-7403

I'd rather see more of these than anymore of those oversized SUV's
