P has been out today digging out the grass mound that has grown in the middle of our road. With the tractors that use our road to access fields around us it is impossible to keep our cars clean.
This car is the same as the one we had when living in the UK. We bought that one from Amercan eBay and imported it from New York. There is a problem importing an American spec car into France so we sold it before moving here. We have always missed it. We are complete Corvette fans. We have re joined the Classic Corvette club UK and it is lovely to catch up with old friends. We plan to get involved with American car clubs here but being such a big country there are long distances to travel.
Now begins the import process. We have applied for the certificate of conformity and have the European head lights ready to install. P wants to put American style plates on it but not sure if that is allowed.
So begins a new chapter of life here. I think our carbon footprint just went back up!
Absolutely gorgeous! Your home looks like a wonderful place to be. So green and lush. Thanks for the picture.
ReplyDeleteIt was built in 1832 as a farm. We still have all the buildings but not all the land. We have an acre which is enough. We are also isolated with no neighbours. I love it here. One day we will get it looking like we want, the dream is still strong!
ReplyDeleteFound you (it's Sharon from Two Fat Veggies!) Very handsome car - and the house looks lovely as well.
ReplyDeletePleased you found me! The outside looks better than the inside as we are still renovating. Huddled in front of the wood burner as it is very cold this evening. Met a neighbour farmer when taking the dogs for their afternoon walk who said snow is expected this week! I love that our French is now good enough to chat to locals!
