Once a month we have a meeting at a supermarket. Here's a selection of some of the cars there:-








Rare one this, especially the interesting motor:-



Teutonic beauty:-


1938 Delahaye:-









Interesting this one: a french fibreglass copy of a Morgan, based around Renault R8 mechanicals.

Interesting collection of cars there. What is the date and location each month just in case anyone happens to be able to be near?

First Sunday of every month, all year round. This isn't the Leclerc at Allonnes but north of Le Mans on the ring road at Coulaines.

How the hell do you get a Triumph 1300 to a meet in France - you almost never see one at Triumph-only meets in the UK!

Is this at the same place each month? I keep bumping into CAP72 meetings, last one was at Super U Eccomoy Sunday 25th April after the " Bidon 5 litres" economy run at Le Mans which is for vintage cars but they are being driven around town not your usual static display.

This meet is always at the same place Yorkie. The CAP-72 one moves around and there is one on the 16th I think but I'll post later where. I'll be at that one with one of the cars.

Edit: to look up the whereabouts of the CAP-72 monthly meetings have a look here:-

The next one is all of four miles from where I live so I hope to make it!

I'm coming over for the Classic on the 4th but am unlikely to be in Le Mans before 4-5pm, is the action all over by then? If not would love to attend.

Cheers.

Thats a shame but thanks for the reply.

Slightly O/T - I followed your thread about the construction of your lowdrag C with interest, will you and the C be at the classic?

cheers.

To be seen all over the place during the week, many times making an appearance at the bar not far from the circuit entrance and also parked inside. Friday there is the meet at Mulsanne for lunch remember.
