History of the Renault badge...

[CrippsCorner]

Was searching for new pics for a new site coming and came across this...

What was your favourite? I like the tank did Renault used to make 'em? That would be a cool logo to make now and get on front on my Clio!

Think I remember the 1972-92 one from my mum's old R5 :clown: (not a GTT though unfortunately...)

Yea the French made Tanks, not sure if Renault did tho - however i do remember watching a documentary about them... and how the Germans walked them because the French tanks kept on having electrical problems... Suprise Suprise So, tt could of been Reno.

I present to you... a renault tank.

As you can see from its extremely well thought out camoflage colour scheme, the french really knew what they were doing in world war 1. (thats not just been painted that way, that is actually how some of them were painted in the war)

Things got a bit better in world war 2, well not really, it was still s**t, slow and broke down alot, but it wasn't quite so brightly colored. However the turret was built to scale at the approximate length of the average frenchmans penis at the time illustrated by the picture below:

For anyone interested in world war 2, play battleground europe online, graphics are shite, but the gameplay is the most realistic you'll ever find. (has all the real tanks aswell as real damage e.g. if you shoot weak shells at the front of a panzer they just bounce off, if you plant satchels on the tracks you can blow them off etc)

I bet the enemy could hear the tanks comin' from miles away because of all the rattles lol

 

[Ali]

[Curtis!]

Do those tanks come with the recaro's or not?

Think I preffer the 2007 one over the rest, be good to see what the next one they release it link

A french tank? 1 forward gear and 5 reverse gears probably.
