Does anyone know if this was a legit Renault commercial? I was watching a JayEmm on Cars review of the very rare Renault Avantime (manufactured by Matra, btw), and wanted to see if there was a EuroNCAP crash test available online. So far, I’ve only come across videos of the successor Renault Espace.

If you’re curious, here’s the review:

Seems like it would be a really cool & quirky vehicle to import. Then again, I’m not Canadian.

Ever since Top Gear did their Avantime racecar bit, I’ve always thought they were cool. Weird, but cool.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha *breaths* hahahahahahahaha. The visuals of crash testing a baguette are just so wacky. I love it!

Seems like the ad was initially for Renault Germany and made by a German company.

A rubbery baguette is definitely not a great sight, it should be crispy !

Who knew a sausage would fare so much worse than a baguette in an impact?

To be fair, I knew the sausage would fare the wurst.

Crash safety performance  is greatly influenced by the inclusion (or not) of explosives...at least, that was my take!

Welp, at least Michael Bay didn't direct it.

In my experience, p ieces of bread dough not sustain much damage in impacts so you may be right.

I feel the Dutch Gouda done better.

Bread is just a Pain, but at the same time, I guess we Knead more .

The sausage was never going to be the Wiener in this test. They are just old Bangers.

The Sushi felt like a fish out of water in this test. Maybe needed a Tuna up?

You ain’t Cod-ding, it just wasn’t the right Plaice for it.

It takes the B iscuit as the Sushi was on a Roll too. It’s Crackers really.

If only they had crash te sted a hamburger. It would have patty’d the test with flying colors. The others would have to play ketchup to even have a chance!
