Saint Pierre and Miquelon ( !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! : Collectivité territoriale de Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon , French pronunciation: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! ) is a self-governing territorial !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! of France, situated in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean near !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! It is the only remnant of the former colonial empire of !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! that remains under French control, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! with a population of 6,080 at the January 2011 census. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

I've basically searched the internet for pics of the vehicle landscape of this place. It's fascinated me since I found out about it. They follow French standards (hence, the Euro plates) and there's mostly a mixture of American and French cars. The French cars are illegal in the U.S. and Canada (under 25 years old U.S.; under 15 years old Canada), so that's what makes it special.

Anyone can identify the French cars?

Even this Transit Connect is Euro-spec.

Now it would be interesting if Quebec succeeded Canada and followed French standards. Moar foreign cars?

That's possibly the same Twingo we saw earlier.
