A forum for new members to introduce themselves to the rabble already onboard. Not compulsory!
Tell us a little about yourself, lie if you have to but keep it to just an introduction, not a car discussion.

Lurking Down Under

Post by Pottsy Oz »

Greeting Fellow FrancAutophiles

My name is Ray and I've been lurking in the background for many years, as well as contributing to the Aussiefrogs Forum under the name of Pottsy.

Over many years of car ownership and tinkering I've owned, maintained, and often sworn at, a lot of French cars. Here's a small list of my past and present obsessions.

Renault: R4, R6, R10, R12, R16.
Peugeot: 404, 504, 505, 604.
Citroen: DS23, CX, D-Special, Xantia, 2CV, C5, GS.

And as if that's not enough, I've had an Austin A30, a Fiat 850, a couple of Minis (still got one) and an MGB.

Obviously my sanity is beyond doubt! :)

So hello to all. Having recently acquired the GS, and never having been exposed to this model before, I'll be in the steep part of the learning curve for a while.

I hope to be able to learn, as well as contribute my own experiences over time.

Cheers for now, Pottsy. (Ray Potts)
