Yesterday I spotted this at a service station North of Paris. It is from along way away (anyone recogise the plates?) and looks like is has been abandoned.
Smashed glass, bent drivers door, bonnet ripped off. Probably engine problems. Complete and pretty solid however. I did not get down on my hands and knees.
Very much abandoned, cost of removing it by the French authorities will exceed its value by some margin.
I reckon only a few days left before the crusher.
It is a late 956cc Savanne.
It has the bit i need to perfect my LHD TL which is the drivers seat. My car was missing it and this car has the correct TL seat in the correct colour year and condition (circa 1991)!
I though long and hard about whether to pinch the seat, but having a clear conscience, no tools and a car full of children, wife and luggage i wimped out. Oh for a 10mm socket on a ratchet.
It was still there when we left at 4 pm yesterday so someone on the forum might be tempted.
It is here, near Saint Quentin on the A26 E17 (North West bound) 02690 , outside Urvillers, France.
Good Luck and let me know if you are successfull.
