They may not be able to build road cars but they have a good reputation in motor sport. Anyone remember the last time Loeb broke down?
No, but then he drives a Citroen, not a Peugot.

Ferrari and McLaren are hardly Privateers!

Fiat own Ferrari and Mercedes have a rather large share of McLaren.

Going deeper, Red Bull aren't privateers either.

TBH, the only team that i'd remotely connect to the original 'Garagiste' is Williams.
