Omo no mind these French people. Even their metro station directions are mostly in French, and were confusing for a first-timer. Ah. My Audi is doing pretty well. Unfortunately she's marooned in Uyo because the roads out of Uyo (Ikot-ekpene/umuahia and Ikot-ekpene/aba) are currently not passable

So... I've finally being able to upload some of my pictures to Photobucket, the storytelling can now begin...

But first I guess a brief explanation of the Paris motor show (Mondial de l'Automobile)... it is a motor show held every 2 years in Paris which aims to showcase the latest automobiles and concept cars.

I will start with the concept cars that I saw- these cars showcased the latest in technology and styling, and most of the car manufacturers at the motor show had one...

Being that this carshow took place in France, (and also to make someone's day wink

), I will start with the Peugeot concept car, the Peugeot Exalt...

Another good friend of mine was there too. He had shared the pics in the WhatsApp Lions families with us. The pics he sent to us were not just this Exalt, but the new 508, 308, 208, etc. Amazing cars! Though I didnt see the New RCZ R in the picture. I wonder why it didnt make the show?

The Nissan idx looks like a tribute to early Nissan and Datsun.

Well, unfortunately concept cars are not for sale... they would still have to undergo a number of changes before they are deemed ready for mass production and this could last years.

I will, however, post pictures of cars that you can save up for... grin

I like the new Lions manual gear levers. They all look the same with chrome details, abi finish.

Where is Africa huh

Re: Sights And Sounds Of Paris Motor Show 2014 by sultaan(m): 7:57pm On Oct 15, 2014

You need to go to the Swiss banks showoff to see African display their skills
A high percentage of those cars will be made from material sourced from Africa but I can bet not one single component is made in Africa.

Maybe south Africa but things are just bad when go ernment decide to make unilateral decisions
