Ah. Bugger. So was Notre Dame. Funnily enough I had a dream last night that I had bought two fire-damaged SMs and was having them rebuilt into a replica Chapron Opéra saloon.

Asimo Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 I'd like this more if it was a plain panel van, but with a 302 V8 and a 3 speed Gollum-change it is most wantable.

I imagine the number of survivors in the UK is close to single digits though My calibrated finger in the air says the shinier example for sale in Portugal at £3000 plus the crispy arches and the giffer dent in the offside rear corner suggests £1000-1500 would be a good place to start.

Tadhg Tiogar Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 1 minute ago, hairnet said: ran over a cats eye? or hit a crisp packet? safer on the bike least could accelerate out the way It had a meeting with a Skoda Octavia. The driver of the G-Swiz died. This was at the junction of the A41 Hendon Way and The Vale. A lot of people didn't realise until that accident that G-Swizes are classed as quadricycles and are therefore exempt from crash testing, or indeed any meaningful crash protection. Sales must have plummeted as I don't see any G-Swizes going around now. There is one that I hack past on farmland neighbouring the stables, but I don't think it's been on the road in years.
