From the father in law to be ....

I have sourced the car from a man who owns a Citroen Light 15
("Traction") in Mormoiron. He is a Czech called Tomas Jungvirt and a
very presentable sculptor.

We saw the car in the open and it is very nice in black with red leather
seating. He will clean and polish it like new he said and drive it as
well and stay as long as he is needed. I reckon he needs to prove it
runs Ok at the rehearsal.

When looking at past wedding pics at the venue there was a rather tasty 340r in the drive, pretty rare for those parts.

TA? Traction Avant?

Brilliant choice - my dad is nut about the car - the forward thinging involved in putting front wheel drive in to a car when most folk were still struggling RWD

That is just gorgeous, one of my favourites. Kepp lusting after a DS as a family car but life is too short to run something so fragile.

My sister had a couple of those at her wedding.

I believe they were sourced from a place in Blairgowrie or Alyth or nearby.

Totally stunning cars, one was burgandy colour and the other navy blue.

Good choice sir!! :thumbsup

Traction Avant is a seriously cool car in my book, so good choice 8)

But, then again, what is wrong with your Lotus? I used my Exige, athough there were some dark mutterings from the wife about my mistress being present on the big day :D

'cos it looks like it's not linking to an image (the.jpg bit) but to a web page containing the image.

Did you copy the code from the photobucket window?
