Hi from France

[geoff]

Hi all.
I am Geoff and have a lovely (ex Arizona) 2.0L injected spider. I live in France (department 11) and was wondering if there are any others on this forum also in France.
Best wishes to all.
Geoff

do you use photobucket, or other image-hosting service? you'll need to. Then you can link the photo into your post.

So, are you internally conflicted or have you surrendered your English living French? Sorry, could not resist! France is truly beautiful with great history. I wish I could have spent more than 48 hours there. On the other side of the Channel I was able to spend a few days in London. Good fun, good drink and an interesting football game at the Millwall stadium. Blue collar South London culture reminded me of my South Philadelphia roots where a sports event can get passionate and ugly quick.

Hi Geoff,

Me too, I recently joined the FIAT Forum, having bought a creme-coloured 1981 2.0 litre fuel injection Spider last autumn.
I live in Holland.
My girlfriend and I, we were in the region where you live just last summer.
We stayed in a gite near Foix.
This was the second time we visited the Pyreneees, and we simply love the area.
Last summer we still travelled in my modern Toyota Carina.
This summer we want to try out the FIAT in Holland and maybe Belgium.
But who knows: next year we may pluck up courage to drive all the way to the south of France.
With that in mind I put your gite on my list of internet-links of possible places to stay.

Greetings from Rotterdam, Holland,
Joris de Baat

Hi Geoff,

Not in France ; but as 1000 km in distance is relative, I live nearby in Bruges, Belgium.
Welcome to the Forum.
French or English, I don't care as I make mistakes in both.

to Joris : if you want to use your Fiat in Belgium this summer, you're welcome in Bruges and there are lots of interesting rallye's, "rallyes" and tours the whole year around. Give a shout if you're interested.

groeten, Geert.
