At secondary school the headmaster brow beat me into taking French, allegedly in my interest although actually to balance class sizes. If he had told me it would assist to read vintage Peugeot adverts I would have been won over without resistance.
If having ventured momentanement @ 2200 tours and 47 kph in top, or much less in 2nd, a Seven buzzed past at a sustained 3,500 to 4,000 it must have been humilitating, although the reduced tax would have compensated in part. Perhaps the cranks lasted longer.
I note that as with the BSA car the ball race is to rear.
I am not quite sure what the carburettor does but it may be applicable to Covid
And as for the ladies camping overnight, nowadays they would need to man the searchlight throughout, if only to stop the car being stolen.
