OK, I think there is online a french mono version taken from an HDTV airing, it's coupled with the video from Team Blu.

A search will show it.

To be precise, french localised titles never existed for the film, it always was written in english hence the voice over. 

The localised version shown above is from a recent TV airing, and is the work of some intern who didn't even bother to check the correct translation and the correct font. It's basically a bad fan edit.

There is some loophole in french law, that let channel airs old masters while the same master on DVD and Blu-ray replace all other masters in all countries.

That's why you still can get from french TV the complete, uncut Mad Max 2 with Pappagallo speech intact, they use the old VHS master, and there are many other oddities that still air on french TV in better versions than the crap DVD version they are showing down our collective throats.
