La Vie de l'Auto

Hi Val 

t's a magazine I subscribed to for several years - in fact I stopped because what they were reporting came round again, every year, and I was spending too much time reading it!  So whilst I haven't got a current copy, there's every chance a rally will be on again this year. Particularly if, for instance, they describe last year's s the " 11th Rally of Abc ", or something like that - the French like to continue a tradition once they've started one!   

Having been a motor club secretary in Lancashire, back in the '90s and '00s, I'm aware also that contact details change only rarely, so there's every chance you can get information from last year's source. 

Did you know there's a small monthly rassemblement of classic car owners and their cars once a month in Montauban, at Leclerc's car park, Aussonne?  But I'd have to scratch my head to work out which Sunday every month.  There's also a very friendly (mostly anglophone) group of classic car owners who meet up and eat at the Lac de Parisot in the Summer - contact there is Valerie Stait (an airline pilot living nearby) and her husband. I do have Valerie's email, if you'd like it.

The nearest full classic car show to here is the annual end-of-May event at Escatalens (82), near Montech, which is quite a big do.  I took our old banger in 2011.  I believe it has its own web site...

Val says I was happily going to tell you about a rally of vintage cars in March when I realised that the information was from last years magazine. I am sure all you " mad on vintage car" people can give me all the info that Chris is  telling me about. I just love anything " old with style"  which is probably  why I like the well matured Malc !
