Lasted me about a year I reckon and the seller wasn't remotely interested in doing anything about it.

Total crap.

Not bitter though.

Honest.



I replaced my fuel hose 3 years ago using this:

Although I'm fairly sure I didn't pay that much for it! :shock: Touch wood, it's still fine.

Finally got around to fitting the replacement roof from City.They did relace it with no bother.Mind you,I don't know if this one will leak yet,i looks fine,but it is as floppy as a cock in a sock around the window.Will try to adjust it tonight.

I think that's the same stuff as Ecas are supplying.
I hope so anyway.

Roof off and a trip to La Rochefoucauld in brilliant sun. This what I found on my return to mine!

People do seem to stick together. There is a number of times I have found a 2cv or other classic park next to my Dyane - they know that you will not bang your door into theirs etc...
Must say yours looks splendid... ;)

Fixes an earthwire from the headlights on the Ami (again, 3rd time, all now have new connections)...
after that put the spare wheel in its proper place under the bonnet... upsidedown, so the inside of the rim can be used for storage..
It gives some nice extra storage space in the boot..

next is to fit the BX seats from the 2cv, make a shelf in the back, service and some new carpet on the floor...

Put in a five foot scaffold pole and some sockets, rolled my roof back fully and drove to a mates yesterday evening as he needed help undoing his gearbox sprocket on his bike and needed a bit of leverge! We did it, without breaking anything, and the drive back home in the warm evening towards the setting sun, huge and glowing absolutely bright red as it slowly sank below the horizon, was one I shall remember for a long time.
