A very poor 16.
I remember these cars well from the 80s when there were many on the road, often rusty. A friend owned one which was nearly as rotten as this example on Ebay. Amusing to see the "repair" on the RH rear wing.
These cars were nice cars to drive, excellent handling and very comfortable. A good French, out of the ordinary approach. A quality which is sadly severely lacking in todays cars which are all the same.

I know of some rust free left hand drive French models sitting in barns in South West France.
Would they be worth bring back to Blighty to sell.? _________________ Austin A30 / A35 Van.
