...I've always liked 40's Dodge Sedans Isaac, so when I saw my first Panhard Dyna in 2003 I was smitten - this is a nice two-tone brown example for 8000 euro, someday perhaps eh:

I never knew you liked Panhards Mike. Do you remember the Bijou I had when I was younger - in later life I've always wished I'd never sold it, not that I can afford one now. So that would be my car, but would you belive it I can't find one that is up for sale so I'll keep looking. Got to go to work now.

To be fair Isaac spotted this first, but this is my choice :D

...am I allowed a second one guys. :?: I remember going to a small town fete in the Auvergne about 10 years ago in my black Visa GTi. As part of the fete they had a car show on the school playground and a group of Simca Rally really took my fancy, not at this price I might add:

The Renault 4 is very cool and I owned this lovely 32,000 mile 1983 GTL in 2005.

I too have a secret desire for a Panard and have just been reading the road test for the 24 CT in a 1963 Autocar Magazine. Last September at Rein I found this 24CT on display and liked it very much. A couple of years ago this Panard pickup was for sale and I wanted it very much.

On the trip to France in Sep 2009 I found this Simca coupe parked on the side of the road next to a Talbot Samba, which I think looks great.

A car I have longed for many years is currently on eBay, I know its British but I have always wanted a Jowett Javelin.

...according to French friend and Chrono enthusiast Jean-Marc on this forum post2050.html#p2050

lecarjmfsm wrote:This car spent its life in Paris 12th "arrondissement" , in original condition until a vintage French test ,by "Citroën Revue", (now called Citropolis). After that, the car was sold and became .... that .... a strange car. To find a Chrono today isn't easy in France, but at this price you can find one like new... This car has been for sale for one year, maybe more... good luck to the new owner !

...it would appear he is not impressed, me thinks from those comments that any self respecting French Visa enthusiast would not give it garage space -lol- -lol-
