As I'm considered convalescent from cataract surgery on my right eye and I'm not allowed any work -they specifically forbid cleaning up for example showing they don't know me very much, nothing troublesome then- I spend time dipping my bucket on this well of knowledge here that Bruce created for us all. Thanks again Bruce!
Though I'm in perfectly good condition and I see much better from the right eye than tuesday 17th I'm stuck in front of my computer for two more weeks. Luckily you're all behind!
So I began reading here from page one some days ago and following. Perfect and learning a lot.
When I read the part above by Nick about old vehicles vs insurances it seems we have something good here. When you have a car more than 30 years old you can choose to have th mention "collection" placed on your "carte grise". Following that you are only entitled to a "contrôle technique" every five years, not every two like for your modern.
There is also a less known advantage which is your insurer can't anymore declare the car as write off.

My brother had all kinds of hassle with his 2CV due to chassis damage... they insisted the car be broken not repaired. I think he's finally given up.
