So I found this classic auction in France with really low reserves. It was pretty simple to sign up to so I did and placed a couple of bids. https://www.artcurial.com/en/sale-4014- ... collection
Roll on to today and the auction is on. I have now done something really silly and bought a Peugeot 201d.
Fuck now I need to arrange some transport in a hurry as the storage is 25 euro a day.

If that Bentley needs moving on to fund it, I'll be interested, but I've heard to SZ market has tanked..

The Bentley will be staying but the DKW may have to rehome, we will see how much this thing costs me to get it here.

I'd say you need a carer to stop this happening, but we'd lose the entertainment so do carry on.

My other half is not happy, she even dragged me out shopping so I wouldn't be tempted to bid. Shame I had left the bid already !. Anyway here are a few more pictures I just need to work out some sort of collection plan now to get it from the south of France back to the UK.
I do love the look of these old 201's and hopefully it is in sound enough condition so I won't have to paint it.

Looks like it just needs a drive in a storm.

It looks like it has a hatchback, very handy if it does. I like the Pig's ears indicators at the back, surely a later add on.
