Very soon we decided to give away these cars as we felt we needed left hand drive immatriculated in France cars.
For me it was a wrench giving away my sporty prelude, it had more vroom than any of our Mercedes.
I remember when I bought it and we lived in Bolton ( before we moved to Henley) and I used to drive often up to book auctions in Carlisle on the motorway. One time driving at speed I was overtaken just overhead by a plane, fast flying from Kinloss, the air force base there. I raised my fist in salute, as I drove along singing. My own business, my own car, a job i loved.
Imagine my suprise years later when Malc picking up some chairs for refugees in the Tarn saw my car in a garage scrap yard.
He had to restrain me from dashing off to buy it back.
I wonder if it still goes?
Happy days
