One passenger on this train was this one.

We headed to here,

Which was fitted with a new one of these.

In the yard, I was quite taken by this.

Mr Racer was happy to be back behind the wheel

and spilling a drop

Mr Racer, the happy wee soul that he is HOONED.

Very well indeed. As it is always said that there’s no replacement for displacement, this rather proves the point. Coupled with a fancy electronic ignition (with bluetooth dontyaknow), a better carb, and a lightened flywheel, this makes the Dyane much more of a car suitable for modern day life. 
It’s still a 2 cylinder Citroen so refinement doesn’t enter into it but all round tractability is very much improved right through the rev range making it swift but not rapid.

it’ only got about 500 miles as yet so when settled in, I’m sure it’ll be even betterer.
