I know where there's a Millesime available - 1.7 TD, LHD, definitely not immaculate but cheap!Paul296 wrote:It's a 'Millesime' - 'Athena' in the UK. This is a French car, where it was also available as a 1.7 turbo diesel ( like this one) - just 1.6 petrol in the UK. The colour is 'champagne' - a very light gold, and quite rare (and lovely!). That car was advertised on Leboncoin - mint condition, 50,000km - 4500 euros asking price!
