The Good Sister says: "nom d'une pipe!"   LOL   because as a nun she cannot swear.  :-)
At the end she says: "merci mon Dieu"   (many ​thanks to God).

alitta2True classic indeed! Interesting fact that the Dyane was supposed to be its successor, but it wasn't that popular, was it?

SaltwaterIn the range of budget cars of this period, the most popular cars were the 2CV (Citroën)  and the R4 (Renault).
Both were extremely basic, functional, robust, and easy to maintain.

"Dyane", even the name fell into oblivion.  ;-)
