Renault paper cars

Did anyone manage to download the 4 Renault sedans (Scenic, Twingo, Lutecia, Laguna) by Mizorogi Akira from the long defunct www.francemotors.co.jp website? Photos are in the car section of this weblink collection:
https://hamapaper2.zouri.jp/

I remember using the WayBack Machine to recover 3 of them but now I can't find them on my disks. They must have been on a netbook I lent out that was returned with a reformatted hard drive.

Anyone?

With the latest version of Firefox, I have little success with Wayback Machine. Sorry

Thanks VK, I forgot to mention that old website had a Shockwave Flash front end, so that made things even harder. I got to a subdirectory that supposedly has the files, but there's no trace on WayBack so I don't understand how I did it the previous time.

Anyway, I looked into ways to recover old Flash-based models and found this really straightforward method for Windows:

How to Play Adobe Flash SWF Files Outside Your Web Browser

It uses an official Adobe download (16MB) app that you simply click to use, by selecting a pre-downloaded (or enter a URL, doesn't work for WayBack webpages) *.swf file then printing the results to a PDF.

The *.swf files aren't hidden on the finding nemo, papercars.net and madurodam website html codes (type crtl-U to view on Google) and can be downloaded, typically they're less than 1MB each and work fine with this app.

The Wayback machine needs to banned from the internet.
It ignores and defies the wishes of authors, artists, and website content creators
and ignores the rules of intellectual property.
Thats my opinion.

If those Renault models are no longer available...accept it...and move on...

there are other Renault models!:

Out-of-the-box Google search terms found these links (no links from live main webpage, so direct links only):
