Flashmob in Paris, 3rd August 2011, 11.00 a.m.

[Realnut4]

Again, if anyone is interested:

To commemorate the date when the first car rolled off the assembly line in the Renault factory in Billancourt, there is going to be a flashmob of Renault 4s.

On 3rd August at 11 a.m. Renault 4 drivers from all over Europe (hopefully) will meet on the Île Seguin in Billancourt and go from there to the Arc de Triomphe, down the Champs-Élysées and to the Eiffel tower.

This event is not organised by anybody, it is simply a flashmob. If you don't know what that is, look it up on wikipedia!

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE DATE OF THE EVENT!

There also seem to be some forum members who will join us - and one (from Holland) who initiated the whole event...

In Dutch:

We gaan ons verzamelen op 3 augustus om 11.00 uur:
"Quai Georges Gorse" in de nabijheid van de "Pont Renault"
Boulogne-Billancourt
Paris

And I think you can figure out that this means we are going to meet at the Quai Georges Gorse in Boulogne-Billancourt at 11 o'clock yourself...

Anyone there who would like to join us? I'll be there, but not with my convertible.

Do send photographs. I wish I had known about it earlier - I was within 200km of Paris today.

I thought it was last week when I posted! Mix up on dates.

Looking forward to the photos.

BlueGreen - I have to agree. It was a hell of a lot of fun! ;-)

And yes, photos... must be somewhere!

edit: There are some on the French forum and some on facebook. I still have to find my camera...

Well I can see Bluegreen's car in those pictures, so she must have been there

BlueGreen I do like your two-tone paintjob, it looks very distinguished

I see someone there has a squirrely mascot – a friend of Clementine and Frederick?

Beautiful...
My photos near the Eiffel Tower are not so clear... but it was raining a lot and we were quite bored...

Hi Anja, great photos, I especially like No 6, very atmospheric, if you know what I mean. Sad there was not much recognition of what you all were doing from Renault, but it looks like you all had a good day. Sell the 4 and get a Morris Minor Traveller, you cannot be serious!:eek:

A Morris Traveller!? It may be rust-free, but watch out for woodworm

The rustiest R4 i have ever seen is LORD STANBURY'S pride and joy
