GBMUD Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi Marc I know that there are a few members in France, I guess that they do not read the forums every day... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro_Al Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi Marc, I lived in Paris for 5 years, but moved back to the UK a few months ago. I only saw about 4 Land Rovers the whole time I was out there - there is a large 'community' of anti-4x4 vandals in Paris so that might keep the numbers down. Cheers, Al.

FridgeFreezer Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I believe you want the "Landmania" forum for all things French. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madcowz Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I only saw about 4 Land Rovers the whole time I was out there I was amazed at the French reaction to our landy when we were on holiday there in August. I kid ye not, we could bring groups of people to a standstill as they stood and gawped, open mouthed at us as we went past. It was amazing. Other times we had people wave and give thumbs up as they drove past and they were driving 'normal' cars. Was a bit of a let down when we returned to the UK and were no longer the centre of attention (as well as everything else that is wrong with Broken Britain) :-( mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparg Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I'd have thought that France would be a fantastic place for off-road, as land is cheap (and plentiful) enough there to make a decent off-road area. Admittedly, I don't think off-road sites are fantastic business, compared, oh i dunno, banking for instance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
