Hello, hoping you maybe able to assist, whilst I am able to view the forum and leave 'likes' I cant seem to contribute to threads or send any messages using my Samsung android phone,
no problems using this desktop though. Is that possibly this forum as I have no issues elsewhere?
Tidy cars them 404s, suspension will be long travel like all the French stuff, worm diff too so bulletproof. Compare to the British equivalent, the Austin Cambridge....
Mine was leaking like a sieve when I bought it. Easy enough to silicone around the pollen filter box. The blower motor was also not working, got my arm in there with some WD40 and pushed the motor spindle to and fro. Got it going and then greased it. Its lasted over a year since then.
GM era Saabs ain't a patch on the real deal but they're cheap enough rammel so I'm not complaining.
The '73 fuel crisis might have had a little to do with it too; some fantastic motors were in the pipeline before then, only to be cancelled or at least modified.
You play a V8 Vedette, I raise you a Matford V8. Old French cars are fantastic, in fact most French cars up to the end of the last century have much to offer.
Did they ever make Yuppies oop North? I thought they were something that only us down here were blessed* with. I hated the 80s with a passion, although with a little hindsight the cars were alright. Had an accident in a 340/360 and it looked after us pretty darned well considering the speed of the impact.
