Post My 2cv and Sidewinder Dyane
Here is a couple of pics of "Dudley" the 2cv and "snoopy" the dyane.

Have owned the 2cv for the past 2 years now, it was my first ever car and have been driving it almost daily since i passed my test. Its a great runner and is in quite good condition now. It was bought in terrible condition and required an almost full restoration which has left it a bit like triggers broom from only fools and horses.

The Dyane was bought about a month ago for my bro. unfortunately due to the larger engine i wont be able to drive it till im 21. But a passenger experience is enough to let me know what its like. and that is f***ing fast. Has a 1.3 engine from a gs fitted. I will get some post MOT pics when its not bloody raining outside. In the meantime here is a video of the dyane revving http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dj8txF84cYI" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false

nice. The Dyane is well tidy - did it take much to get it sorted? There's a few guys on here with GS/A powered cars:

adrian's 1220cc Mehari: 1220cc-flat-4-mehari-death-project-started-t74.html

TIMMY! and his 1299 AKS400: jeremy-aks400-super-t14.html

there's another 1299 Dyane kicking about as well - built by 'spanners' on here & recently sold on - the new owner has got some nice plans for it. :P

MOT bill of about £350 i think. I try not to get bogged down in the money details as luckily it comes out of my dads wallet :lol:
Still needs new seats and a bit of sound proofing as it is loud inside. Luckily the Chassis was in great condition as that was
the one thing we worried about when buying it.

i thought that SNP379Y wasn't it?

i'm pretty sure this is the one that TIMMY! missed out on a fair while back when it was on eBay offered by the chap i bought 2 of my previous drummers from - Mark Green.
