    Lovely R4 graveyard , owner restores them. Bit weird that the only modern car there was a Tesla next to an old petrol lawn, mower. The mechanic joked that the owner wanted an upgrade ! 10E2773F-7377-42B3-A454-7F3B5BDCB305.jpeg 46F0CC4A-993C-4641-A556-4984ECA0CBF8.jpeg 46F0CC4A-993C-4641-A556-4984ECA0CBF8.jpeg 39791A6E-A2A4-42AB-A403-F81F91D44914.jpeg 293079D4-4D11-40F5-ACF3-C7EC4A4AF3AC.jpeg 96A45C96-ADCA-49B3-85E9-B45683DDF446.jpeg 46F0CC4A-993C-4641-A556-4984ECA0CBF8.jpeg 96A45C96-ADCA-49B3-85E9-B45683DDF446.jpeg

    Sadly I don’t speak German but in his broken French it is a Russian company that still makes them. He had it imported from new via a Dutch agent , I think in Stuttgart. I haven’t tried to google but check out the licence plate. He said it had a 2.6 L petrol engine, 2/ 4 wheel drive and he’d waited 9 months to have a dormobile roof fitted that fitted the roof camber perfectly.He also had a 270 degree awning that wrapped around the back!​

    Yep. Stopped at an old Priory …St Michel de Grandmont in Soumont Herault Occitanie. Absolutely brilliant . Priory unspoilt, nobody around great tour around . Fabulous unspoilt untouristy surroundings. The site is free to park overnight in camper, it is contained in the book “France Passion” which for those that don’t know is a massive choice of free overnight parking on real farms throughout France. Some have water, but basic free parking in brilliant locations. No obligation to buy their produce….but best of luck in trying to resist. So far stayed at 3, one was a chestnut producer with amazing produce. The Priory that had terrific good value wine, and tonight stop in Gignac on a wine producers farm ( close to the R4 graveyard).
    Thoroughly recommend the France Passion membership ( think it’s £20 p.a but nobody has asked to see it! )

    It’s to attach the awning to so you don’t get wind blowing under van into awning - very rarely use the awning but easier just to leave it on - it’s fixed into the jacking points
