It does have a certain charm, doesn't it. Note, the price of 8495 is in euro, not sterling as I first read it, making it approximately £7250...

An odd mixture of features: rubber-mounted engine and four-speed gearbox, early deep-dished steering wheel, dashboard without glove pockets, and the handbrake suggests hydraulic brakes. I would also query the claim that it retains the original paint and upholstery!

Fascinating, the late model engine and gearbox, the French clock and oil gauge all add to the fun...Bruce, blow the moths out of that wallet of yours!

Sorely tempted, but I have "been instructed" that I do not need nor want any more cars...

I am allowed to “want” more cars. Acquiring any is a different matter.

I am a rat, not a mouse, albeit a reckless one, but over time even that has been subdued....  Sad

Thank you Chris, I thought the same but didn't like to say! Although it might be a good car for a restoration project, preferably at a much cheaper price.
