It is noticable that the few ZT's found for sale are generally in drab colours Grey or Black and I much prefer brighter colours. British Racing Green is a good colour and despite being darker better than Silver IMHO.

How would it be best to go about finding a suitable vehicle in France especially as out French is very limited ....................... something which we need to address and have tried but there seems to be no availability of learnign French locally here and the computer programme bought is frankly not the best .

We could of course re-register the Copperleaf Red Classic CDT but it would remain RHD of course but that is for next year to worry about as we understand it takes a while to purchase property in France and there is the trial period to go through before we make that decision.

Hi there.

My wife and I have been coming to France off and on for 26 years now.

We have been living here permanently for 14 years.

My car is a RHD Rover 75. My wife's car is a Citroen C4 RHD.

Neither of us have problems with the steering wheel on the right.

If you need any odd bits of info them please put a post on this thread.

There are thousands of Brits living in France and it is very easy to get help with learning the French language.

There are also a number of free magazines run by English folk that will give you a wealth of information on just about anything you would like to know.



Good luck with your search.---
