Hello everyone.
I live in France and own a few English cars, mainly from the 60s and 70s, Triumph, Morris, Daimler, Austin, Lotus, but also a Lanchester from the 30s.
It was on Youtube that I saw the Old Classic Car videos, which prompted me to come to this forum.
I have maintained my own cars for over 30 years.
My English is not excellent, but I will do my best to exchange with you.

Robert

Welcome Robert!
Always good to see a non-UK contributor. Would be nice to see some pictures?

Greetings from the Netherlands.
