...-on-the-panel test". The "tock-tock" is assuring that the steel sheeting and it's insulation is real tough.
Body panels are joined neatly together. Plastic trim is minimal so no worries about loosened and rattling pieces around. They come in body color too. Neat...
(Turkish consumers have this hard to satisfy taste. So it is next to impossible to push whatever you have in hand into the market. Even the ever cheap brands like Dacia or alike have to change their vehicles before they export it to Turkiye.)
The side wing mirrors could have been larger, at a better shape and electric control. At least they are color coordinated and not just black squares...
The forward stretched right side mirror (left side for the UK) is an extra at a funny price. So why not free ? (Something like 30 Pounds !) It is helpful as well, since with that, you would not need...

Advantages: Cheap car with all the safety future Renault has built in, in high end range. Disadvantages: Someone might not like the look and feel of the car.
Advantages: Solid. Good brakes. Disadvantages: Top heavy.
...CB500 is an ideal starters bike.
It is a 'hardy' bike, damage is minimal and cheap to repair when it is dropped.
It is a good bike for the shorter people and females, like myself.
I am only 5ft 3", with a 29" inside leg.
The seat height of the CB is 31".
Lowering the height of the bike is cheap and easy.
You only need to lower the handle bars and replace the rear shock absorbers, these can be bought via mail order catalogues.
Not forgetting to have the side stand modified, as the bike sits almost upright.
For the females, you'll also have to adjust the clutch lever, bikes are not designed for women with small fingers!
If you are a lazy rider (like me), acceleration in a high gear is very good.
I would highly recomend the CB500....
