Re: help needed getting a 2CV to Blighty
Love the translation. The French must love these translation sites. If you are looking for a left hooker there are better around than that.

Re: help needed getting a 2CV to Blighty
really just comes down to cost, as 300 euros is nothing for something that will have tax free status once its on the road, plus its near Calais so hopefully isnt far from the ferry Russell, if i can get details from the seller (i think he is saying its driveable, but who knows ???) then collection and a couple of days storage would be fab . edit - could i ask a big favour, could someone who speaks French possibly ring the seller and ask a couple of questions about papers and if the car is driveable, as ringing and saying 'bonjour, is le voiture for sale, wee, le 2cv' and getting stuck after is a little bit of a pain . it seems my dad doesnt know as much as i thought he did

Re: help needed getting a 2CV to Blighty
When I say driveable though, I don't want to be lumbered with something that is asking to get me booked and fined. If it's not viably driveable I'm still quite willing to help out in other ways though.

Re: help needed getting a 2CV to Blighty
He has no documents whatsoever, no carte gris, no CT. It is for spares or repair and is not drivable. He would expect it to go on a trailer. The floors have gone as well by the sound of it. He was none commital on the chassis. en etat is all he would say, the french say that when its new or riddled with holes. The engine runs. He has parts with it but they are not included in the price. Oh and it is a 2 2cv ie a 435cc engine. {you can see that from the pic as well}
