i have had mine for nearly three years, so its time for something new, probably a Citreon c6, Passat R36, or M5 (the wifes choice not mine). Whatever it replacement is, it needs to deliver similar levels of odd ball cool!
I think the 2cv beautifully sums up frances socialist leanings, its a car for the people, delivered at a subsidy by the government to the benefit of the masses. Sure the aristocracy where swanning round in citreon DS's, traction avants and bugattis, but at least they gave the peasants something to drive too!
there is even one near mythical super charged one, made by the matra factory as a prototype. Its just sold on French ebay, i wish it was mine! [www.ebay.co.uk]
I love the idea and the theory, but my only point was that wars are not won by the military anymore, look at Afghanistan, Iraq, Northern Ireland etc. Wars are won by talking and dialogue, not dropping expensive metal onto peoples homes...
I hope you are joking here - recent evidence shows that you dont need an organised military to win a war, just a lot of blokes with weapons hiding on street corners is enough!!
we are heading to north korea for four days over easter (after a wedding in China). I will be sure to provide a jalop story as a follow up, maybe you will still need those tickets?
