French Alps NO SNOW - NO 104ZS Cup… Now Shite spotting trip

Recommended Posts

Those on the beige that know me… know I love all things Peugeot Talbot Sport.. hence this post! (Admins feel free to move if you believe it’s in the wrong area).

The second week in January sees myself and partner head off to the French Alps to watch this spectacle.

I will of course have photos and videos to post once there… with any luck there’ll be some other interesting vehicles in attendance!

So it’s literally the first week of January…. and European countries are experiencing a heatwave…. There’s no snow on the resorts…  with ski runs closing…. you couldn’t make this shit up! Will have to make enquiries to confirm that the event isn’t going to be re-scheduled… no point arriving at the French Alps for there to be no racing or skiing!

  • Faker changed the title to French Alps NO SNOW - NO 104ZS Cup… Now Shite spotting trip

If you are in the Vercors, you will be very close to this stash of NSU Ro80s rotting outside the derelict-looking Hotel de Deux Sœurs on the Col d'Arzelier...most recent Streetview is from 2019, but they hadn't moved since the previous drive-by in 2009 so the odds are favourable that they are still there...

There's lots of Grenoble olympics infrastructure in the Vercors to amuse you- old ski jump at Saint Nizier and the abandoned road tunnel at the end of the D218 at the Autrans ski area.

Bon spotting de chod!

Chod spotting in the south of France has been very poor so far…. One Opel Corsa A (nova), one Citroen xsara, one mk1 Clio and one 2CV6 under a tarpaulin…. Where did it all go wrong?! This place used to be full of older chod… and not that terribly long ago!

Update! Another mk1 Clio, one C15 and a Peugeot J9 camper. A Volvo 440/460, and a shed load of Gen1 Twingos.. Oh and an early panda.
