A fantastic event,hundreds of classic cars , huge autojumble and car club stands, a real fab event!
if you turn up in a classic car, you can park with the other hundres of classics!! no pre booking,
i went last year in my MK1 BX19 TRD (Sophie,the italian bx!) and they allowed her in to the classic car area!! :D
Anyone interested,drop me a PM, i've been the last 3 years, and going again next week!!! (either in a renault 16TS or an L reg BX!)

Damn! I'm driving through (actually staying in!) Reims - on the 16th March, do'oh! And there's no way I can alter the arrangement either.


Ah well, one for next year's diary?

What a fab weekend!! so many cars i "wanted"!!
went over in my "dads" white L reg BX16txi auto, did some 700 miles (most the cars done in years in one weekend! 43,000miles)
what was great, anyone turning up in a classic car can park up together, hundreds of classic cars, and they allowed my BX in!! on the sunday i parked next to a British talbot Alpine,then a white Dutch BX 19GT MK1 parked next to me!!
Although my BX was a late model,and not regarded as a classic as such in France, the amount of people who looked at it was amazing,several photographing it! and it got a few looks driving through France,more than i expected,apart from another BX owner who overtook me,who took no notice!!
in the classic parking area were a mk1 bx gt, trd,and a sport,plus mine,
Maybe next year we could organise a BX convoy???
You know how rare the Simca/talbot rancho is? we must have counted 7 of them!!
