Re: Sillier and sillier
Mind you when browsing I noticed that a Citroen 2CV 'Charleston' with 40,000km. on the clock sold for over £44k at the Artcurial sale - yes, that's sterling not euros! I know which I would rather have. (My brother had a Charleston, years ago, so I have seen one 'up close & personal'...)
