I'm a big fan of French bikes, especially Motobecane, which always seemed to have the best fit and finish of the French offerings. Until recently I was riding a Grand Jubilee, which was one of their better touring-style bikes. My wife has a Mirage Mixte, a "lower end" Motobecane, which although kind of heavy is still smooth, stable and rather elegant looking. If you look for a Moto from the late 70s or early 80s they tended to use standard (not French) threading, so it's easy to find replacement parts.
