\"CitroenCar hire is widely available in France, with all the major car rental firms having offices at most international airports and in many towns across France. You will not have to hire an old French “boneshaker”such as the 2CV – familiar marques and models are widely available (especially European and Japanese). To get the best out of your trip to France you will need to get away from the main towns and airports and explore “deepest” France – la France profonde! <\/em><\/p>\n

French roads are generally very good, especially the N( or rn=route nationale<\/em>) roads which have often been sideline by autoroutes. Many autoroutes charge a toll, so using local and N roads can save you money – and be quite fast between towns, albeit slower in congested towns and cities.
