Frogchod Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 This morning I've been to a car show in my local town. I took the Reliant which was well received. It was quite amusing to stand back and watch people look at it. Most of them getting down to pear under the front looking for the missing wheel Pretty poor turnout this year. Probably due to the crap weather. Here's some pics: SierraMikeHotel, Sigmund Fraud, catsinthewelder and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniMort Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 I love that if you go into French supermarches there’s a tonne of specialist 2CV magazines. Even a Renault 4 one! Uncle Jimmy and chaseracer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we stayed in Vosges the nearest Carrefour was pitifully tiny. We much preferred Eleclerc, or sometimes SuperU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually have a vast selection of mags and if you're lucky loads of miniature shite like this : MiniMort, anonymous user, chaseracer and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Chocolate Teapot Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Seeing your reliant on French plates has upset me, I am fighting with Italian uselessness at the moment trying to import my 2004 triumph motorbike to Italy, I was talking to the tecnico in the official office just last week about importing English older cars and the deal with matching frame and engine numbers and out of the blue he said to me " no, you can not import one of those mr bean 3 wheeled English cars here, no way." I felt like telling him that the uk lets those useless fiat 500s into the uk system . ( I'm talking about the old and the new ones ! ) Cheeky sod, but I had to smile as he is doing me a favour by only taking 3 months and cocking up most of the paperwork for my bike. busmansholiday and Frogchod 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spottedlaurel Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I'd very happily find my route barreed by that happening. In true French style was it over by 12.30pm? Is that a Mazda 818/RX3 coupe next to the Autobianchi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
