I've not been following this discussion, having just returned from a globe
trotting escapade, so presumably others have pointed out that this is
probably a tribute to Louis Renault and the early French auto industry. I
believe L (in European Parlance) refers to Luxe and GL to Gran Luxe (not to
forget De Luxe)!
