For foodies, the taste of France is Bordeaux red wine with French foie gras, cheese baked snails for breakfast.
For The Funny, the French fun is the nonsense in the taxi express, teasing the police like a monkey.
For girls, the sexiness of France is Dior Chanel with Petite Guerlain, under the Eiffel Tower with beauty.
For second-hand car dealers, in addition to the design aesthetics that French cars cannot appreciate, it is the retention rate that cannot be supported by the wall like a bucket, and it is the warriors who can be sold, and those who dare to collect can only be called heroes.

The rarity of today's French car has touched my knowledge blind spot, but I still want to share this learning process with the guest officials.
This time I was taught a 2007 model " Logo 407 2.2SW Deluxe Edition "
Perhaps the guest officers are more familiar with the logo 307, after all, the sales volume of that year is still reasonable.
I always saw a 307SW when I lived in Tiantongyuan before, and the first feeling at that time was
"What is this thing?"
The 407 is a sedan version of the sedan, while the SW is short for StationWagon, which literally translates to a station wagon, but it's a scaled-down version of a motorhome.
But when I saw the 407SW, I remembered a sentence
"Others laugh at me for being crazy, I laugh at others who can't see through it."
Indeed, spending more than 400,000 yuan to buy such a model that six relatives do not recognize requires not only courage, but also a strong psychological quality to cope with the surrounding incomprehension.
For such an unpopular car, it is already very good that the residual value can be retained to one-sixth of the year, but this is not the point, and it is enough for you to stop and look back and take out a photo of your mobile phone and send a circle of friends.
On this 407SW, the French understanding of aesthetics is exuded everywhere, and the only people who can be called a station wagon in 2007 are Sang Lu and Kaiyue Wagon, but the design of both cars belongs to the square.
The rounded curves and flexible lines of the 407SW can definitely be called at the forefront of fashion at that time.
Because the logo of the logo is a lion, it is also closer in this direction in terms of shape, the huge headlights have the domineering spirit of the lion king, and the air intake is like the blood basin of the lion.
The Best Thing the French car is at the rear, whether it's Citroën's curved glass or the hips of this 407SW, it's a gimmick.
Normally speaking, a car is divided into four columns A, B, C, and D, but the 407SW has two more columns, D and E, which is very chic and has a bit of a roll cage feeling.
The rear tailgate can be opened in two stages, which was definitely a drastic design in that year, not to mention whether it is beautiful or not, in terms of practicality, it is definitely a leader.
But this bold design brings not only a stunning visual experience, but also more of a later maintenance cost.
It is not bad to say that once the glass is broken, the maintenance cost will be several thousand.
The cost of all-red taillights is also quite high, the price of the single body is three thousand, and the pairs of children have to buy five thousand, so the French car does not look at the value, but the old generation of repairs are really not careful.
For the logo, the low configuration of rough workmanship has always been criticized by everyone.
However, because the 407SW is an imported car, it is much better than the domestic one in terms of workmanship and configuration, and what is more valuable is that the front brake caliper is still a pair of opposing double pistons.
The logo is not only eye-catching in terms of shape, but even the displacement of the engine is not out of the ordinary way.
The all-aluminum engine, code-named EW12J4, has a displacement of 2.2 liters, 163 horsepower and a maximum torque of 220N.m although it is not a highlight.
But on the contrary, this mediocre power output and decent manufacturing process make the 407SW have no defects in hardware, and the stability is much higher than that of today's turbines.
The headlight bracket on the front right side of the front has a softness that the original does not have, because the headlight bracket is re-welded to the fenders.
Combined with the dismantling marks and residual paint of the screws, there must have been an accident on the right front side of the 407SW, but only the position of the headlights was injured, and the structural parts were not damaged.
The interior of the 407SW is a typical French car, the workmanship materials are superior, but it does not create the atmosphere it should have, if there is no middle screen, the grade is similar to that of the 307.
The dark mahogany trim makes the 407SW a little more calm and less romantic.
The instrument panel is very similar to a watch, with delicate chrome decoration on the outside and orange-red lighting, and the visual effect at night is superb.
The densely packed buttons in the center control the multimedia system, the telephone system and the air conditioning system, but I found that the child lock was placed in the control area and was easily touched by mistake.
Because children are not allowed to sit in the co-driver in Europe, it may not be a sign that the domestic co-driver sitting on the co-driver at that time was some children with a strong curiosity about the car.
Since it is a station wagon, the comfort of the configuration is naturally not absent, in the 407SW, I experienced not only comfort, but a kind of pleasure from the heart.
The heated seats are also installed in a unique position, the roller adjustment damping is great, and the eight-way electric adjustment seat meets the needs of all driver's seats.
"Knee airbags are still a luxury configuration."
There is a mechanism under the co-pilot's seat, which can be pulled up to flatten the co-pilot's backrest forward, forming a platform that can be put on the foot, coupled with a 2725mm wheelbase and a large and comfortable rear seat, and the first class is no different.
I'm sure everyone who sees the roof of a 407SW will say it from the bottom of their heart
"Cow X!"
Different from the panoramic sunroof, the roof of the 407SW is a large piece of glass, although it cannot be opened, but the transparent feeling is not comparable to that of ordinary cars, and at night it is the starry sky roof of the Eight Classics.
The auditory sensation of the eleven JBL hi-fi stereos in the car is obviously overstepping, especially the subwoofer in the trunk. Driving to the countryside at night, a serenade with the top of the starry sky is beautiful.
In the actual driving process, I found a meticulous design, the 407SW leg air outlet is different from other cars, the direction is blowing from the back to the front, and it is two air outlets, which is too comfortable for me who likes to show my feet and neck.
The gearbox of the 407SW uses Porsche Tiptronic technology.
Although it is a 4-speed box, it is really not picked in the smoothness and durability, but the fuel consumption is well, about 11 kilometers per hundred kilometers, and it must be No. 95 oil, but after all, it is produced by Porsche, which can be understood.
The gearbox is equipped with S Sport mode and Snow Mode, both of which can clearly feel the transmission's control of power output, especially the S gear, which is very strong.
If you don't have a personal experience, it's hard to imagine that the logo can adjust the driving texture of the car so comfortably.
The front double-cross-arm independent suspension and the rear integral multi-link mechanism allow the 407SW to be relaxed whether it is cornering or paralleling, and the feeling of comfort changes my feeling of the iconic sports car.
However, this small family full of temperament rearview mirrors does lose the identity of this price point, and the field of vision is very narrow.
The same is the French romance, compared to the mouth red packet these flashy things, more than 50,000 to buy such a mobile starry sky room, can completely improve the probability of off the order.
