Here is my ride, a Dyane 6 Cote d'azur. I have only had it for 6 months and really needs full restoration carrying out, welding, respray, the works. But for now i've painted it blue for a quick and stylish look for when im down in cornwall...

Here she is...

I had a Cote:





Yours looked pretty tidy & to be honest, i preferred it before you painted the bottom blue.

Rare car now - perhaps 10-12 left.

wowo neil, thats a very nice cote d'azur.. cheeky bit of lowering i see (low and slow)literally. Must have been hard to let it go. 10-12 you say!! a gem. Will have to have a look at what your driving now...

I know what you mean guys about the blue paint, it will be coming off in the summer when its due for a respray, but i'm keeping the black wheels Wink

At the moment i'm in the middle of welding the passengers floor panel, pictures will be up on the blog soon....

thanks for the comments Very Happy

just poster some new pics on the blog, check it out and tell me what you think. The floor panel is welded, (first time with a few practice runs) very hard and messy but solid, easier to weld butter Laughing and i got rid of the hideous halfords blue. m.o.t is on monday, wish her luck!!

That car looks in real good shape with very little rust to speak of.
Keep up the good work and enjoy the Cornwall trip (A Beautiful Place).

Tony.
