Bikes: Catrike 559 I own some others but they don't get ridden very much.
I remember that era. Drill a series of holes, test riding between drillings, until the part fails. Then buy a new component and drill one less hole.

I wouldn't say that's a fair shake for Modern French engineering. Renault has powered Formula One winning cars and Citroen won the WRC Title many, many times.
Ferrari is part of the Fiat Corporation now , but they are not targeting the same Customers. This is what is called a False Equivalency.
