elansprint72 Posted June 17, 2010 Share #42 Posted June 17, 2010 Is this a Lotus ? .... Henry No; some sort of kit, probably put together in the 1980s, looks like parts of it are from a 1930s Rolls Bentley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samwells Posted July 1, 2010 Share #44 Posted July 1, 2010 Ah...let me bring this down to earth...here's my Citroen Traction Normale I used to run as my everyday car a few years ago. It was always good for a wave thru the Douane and few free glasses of Pernod whenever we visited France :-) cheers: Sam Welcome, dear visitor!

biglouis Posted July 1, 2010 Share #46 Posted July 1, 2010 James, like that one. One of the few Fords I thought was actually beautiful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglouis Posted July 1, 2010 Share #47 Posted July 1, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Lotus Cortina. Another lovely Cortina but I prefer the white/green paint job of Jame's blurry one... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted July 1, 2010 Share #48 Posted July 1, 2010 Ah...let me bring this down to earth...here's my Citroen Traction Normale I used to run as my everyday car a few years ago. It was always good for a wave thru the Douane and few free glasses of Pernod whenever we visited France :-)cheers: Sam Love those Michelin X tyres; I bought Mrs T a 2CV years ago, because I thought she deserved it (her car at the time was a FIAT Abarth 130TC); she did not appreciate the joke and I drove the snail for a year, sometimes on the road, sometimes in the ditch.. Did you have the Cotal gearbox with teaspoon gear lever? Great Maigret car. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samwells Posted July 2, 2010 Share #52 Posted July 2, 2010 Love those Michelin X tyres; I bought Mrs T a 2CV years ago, because I thought she deserved it (her car at the time was a FIAT Abarth 130TC); she did not appreciate the joke and I drove the snail for a year, sometimes on the road, sometimes in the ditch.. Did you have the Cotal gearbox with teaspoon gear lever? Great Maigret car. Yes, this had the original 3-speed gearbox with the gear lever on the dashboard - it previously belonged to a Parisian woman. Extraordinary roadholding, due to the wide track, long wheelbase, low pressure Michelin tires designed specifically for the car, and an excellent weight distribution...on the right kind of slippery, twisting road, I could beat my friend's BMW 3-series...after all, these Citroens used to regularly win the Monte Carlo till the Minis came along (the French regarded the Minis as cheating owing to their superior headlights...but then they would say that, wouldn't they?). A few years later, I had a DS Pallas, but that was a pig to work on, and hardly anyone in the UK understood them. Mrs W had a Deuche for a while, too...it was rather like sailing a small Spanish galleon. cheers: Sam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreaffm Posted September 1, 2010 Share #56 Posted September 1, 2010 Hi, I'd like to share some Mille Miglia pictures, if I may. This year was the 4th time for me, but the first time with a Leica. M9 that is. Siena. Siena again. Brescia. Rome. Bye, Andrea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
