I walked in the local Volvo main agent for a few bits and pieces and was given a genuine Citroen, 2CV rear brake drum puller.


i remeber that story!!

im still yet to stumble upon the kindness of a fellow un known 2cver orex 2cver doing anything like that to me, never had a note on the windsheild or nothing
maybe because most people round here are arse holes??

edit
in fairness i dont park in town vary often, but i do park in tesco and other places!
i just remebered
i did have a man lean in through the roof (roof open) to talk to me about his 2cv and it had only done 11,000 1 owner from new!!! nice guy, but never really expirenced a huge amount in the way of reandom kindness, kindness from known fellow 2cvers but not un known !!

i obviously made myself mis understood,
what i meant was is the 2cv industry itself is very nice to me, what im saying is, ive not had someone "outside" it donate me things etc, that make better sense??

I noticed that too, I think having some patience when typing has a lot to do with it though!

The red one in my signature has been off the road since 1998, but you may have seen the one that Max now owns. I used to live in Poringland.
