Bienvenus Leachim et gainz! Il y a certains entre nous qui comprennent le francais (plus ou moins!), mais si vous cherchez des conseils concernant la voiture, je suis d'accord qu'il vaut mieux poser vos questions en anglais.

Hello, I'm not living in France but I recently went camping near La Palmyre in Charente Maritime. Whilst visiting the local SuperU in the village of Arvert I spotted this Diesel 75 in the car park. It seemed in good condition. Anybody want claim it?

that's great, someone closeby! I always pass Salon de Provence when I
travel to Marsignane Airport picking up my wife and/or kids every few months. They still live in Germany cq Holland.

Don't need any help yet, replaced a seized rear caliper plus repaired the drains of the sun roof. But thanks for the offer, I might need it one day.

Bonjour à tous!

Je viens d'Irlande du Nord, donc l'anglais c'est ma langue maternelle.
Cependant, en ce moment, j'étudie le français avec l'économie à la fac, et je l'adore!
L'année prochaine, je dois travailler en france (ou un pays francophone). Peut-être j'achèterai une outre Rover 75 quand je suis là!

(S'il y a des erreurs, vous pouvez me corriger)

à plus,
Rían P

Cut and paste into google translate https://translate.google.com/

It's not a perfect translation tool, but it'll give you the gist.

Hello everyone!

I come from Northern Ireland, so English is my mother tongue.
However, at the moment, I study French with the economy in the university, and I adore it!
Next year, I have to work in france (or a francophone country). Maybe I'll buy a Rover 75 off when I'm there!

(If there are any errors, you can correct me)

see you,

More or less it! Haha
In class we're always told to avoid Google translate like the plague for translation of sentences.
There's a great video on youtube where songs have been fed through google translate. Quite funny!
