Reanult Clio V6? Do you have Renaults out there in the states? I had a renault 21 'monaco' years ago as a runaround, it had leather seats, what a car that was

I note in films you see a lot of americans driving old volvos, old BMW's, but ive never seen a renault! Or was it a Renault that Tom Cruise had in War of the worlds, seem to recall him in some sort of People Carrier. Or maybe it was a chrylser voyager thing. We have them here along with PT Cruiser 'S**tboxes'

The only Renualt I've seen in the states was the 'le Car" !

Passed a guy on the freeway everyday who drove a red one. It was very entertaining for the morning commute!

Yea, you may see the odd Renault here and there, but never anything newer. We dont get them here. Now the Clio V6, that would be one very fun car!
oh, and which Harrier is that? Looks good!

The Harrier is from UKMIL, im sure i found it here at SIMV, theres an fs9 version, and an fsx version. I found it by typing 'Sea Harrier' ito the search thing i think!
Its certainly not brilliant, and my shot maybe makes it look better than it really is......
Doesnt really hover that well either....but i wasnt concerned about that really, i just wanted a Sea Harrier!
Could do with a really detailed paint job, that would sure spruce it up, but looking at the .bmps, i wouldnt know where to start, looks a bit of a mess to be honest!!
There used to be one on a ski ramp at Yeovilton Air museum, incredible to see close up, but i dont know wether its still there. They had the Kestrel (the harriers 'prototype' if you like) there as well. Its always been one of my favorites, i think looks wise for a military aircraft its up there with the spitfire, in SHAR form anyway.
Plus its British, and according to a book i was reading by a bloke who commanded a squadron down in the falklands (Nigel Ward i think hes called) theres not a lot that can take on a well flown SHAR, as many american plots found out when they took some over for those 'meets' that they do!!!
Fantastic aircraft, shame its now gone from our Navy :-/
