You are partially to blame Roger :lol: Remember those hours we spent a week or so ago talking about your HDi? I think that ignited a small spark too :wink:

It seems I have now possibly acquired a small French project car :wink: A true and proper classic :)

There's even talk of rearranging my garage so she'll fit in and can be cosy and dry through the winter...

Clues... No, it's not a 2CV... No soft top... It is smaller than a Saxo and it's not an R4 ;)
