French car enthusiast in Yorkshire

[AMC442]

Hi,

Settled in Yorkshire since 2012, I restore cars as a hobby.

I started with a 2CV Citroën 30 years ago when I was a student (mechanical engineer) and came late to BMW when my youngest son was born 5 years ago, looking for a safe and reliable commuter to transport baby boy to the nursery.

Bimmers were not considered as cars to own by a French family having eyes only for french poo and Peugeot, black 325 being the drugs dealers favourite in the popular parisian neighbourhood where I grew up.

Now we own a E46 323ci (YOM 2000), thanks to the negative reviews that keep the price of this car much below than its real value (if not a M3), and 2x 525 tdse touring (YOM 1998), which I will soon create a topic about, that came last month to share our garage together with a 205 GTi and a Clio RS awaiting restoration.

Happy to join the club and confident I will receive a lot of wise advices to get the E39 back on the road soon.

Cheers!
