I thought the BeBop was cute

Here comes the new Renault R5 electric only. Plays into the retro theme. Currently outselling Tesla in France and getting notice in the rest of Europe. Renault is also making their own batteries. Plus there is a very important optional accessory that I would just have to have if I were to get one.

A wicker baguette holder. Mais oui!
