Half an hour after that conversation he called me back to tell that he had bought a Renault Clio for me. I didn’t even have had my own.”
Your brothers had an opinion about it …
“They have indeed put my clio a lot. They are real ‘cars’, while I am not necessarily. That car was an easy target for them. To begin with, the thing was golden and once they had sorted out that my car of all possible options had exactly zero, the fence was of course completely off Dam.

French cars have a stigma of unreliability. Do you have experience with that?
My clio turned out to be very reliable and never left me on the way. I have had a flat tire twice on the road, but luckily I was able to change the wheel myself. Once I found a large water ballet in the car, but that was my own fault. The car had never seen a car wash and all the balls and grilles were hidden with leaves. The water could only go one way after a large mood and that was inside. The car smelled for a wet dog for days. That was a learning moment … ”
How long have you actually had the Clio?
“About six years old. When I was hired at my first real ‘big man’s job’ as a manager, my father found that I could not arrive in the old Clio. He saw that sharp, because my colleagues joked for months about that gold -colored Clio with which I came to ride my job interview. Moreover, my father was going to make a sporting car. R-Design for replaced by a Mercedes-Benz Cla, I was involved in a fierce accident with a truck.
So safety above everything else?
“Safety has always been a thing in our family. My father did not want my mother to drive around in a small car and after that accident I understand him even better. The Mercedes-Benz Cla has become my dream car because I think it is so beautiful, but also because I can still retell it thanks to that car. A strong, safe car has never been a hard requirement for me.”
