  A Grand Monday: Citroen CX Familiale 23 Oct 2017 (News)
  If you're looking for a sub-£1000 seven-seater for the family, there's plenty of choice in the classifieds. You could go for a tired Ford Galaxy, an aged Vauxhall Zafira or, if you're feeling brave, a Renault Espace. Or... you could have this - a car that makes an Espace seem like an eminently sensible purchase.  The seven-seat 'Familiale' version of Citroen's weird and wonderful CX is one of the most comfortable family classics you can find, and they very rarely come up for sale at all, especially not at this price.

  French barn finds head to auction 11 Mar 2016 (News)
  But it’s the collection of kids’ pedal cars that’s particularly interesting, with a number of rare models up for grabs – a list that includes miniature versions of the Citroen DS, Renault Dauphine and various Simcas, the vast majority needing some restoration work but temptingly affordable thanks to estimates of just €80-€100. One thing to bear in mind before taking the plunge, however, is the auctioneer’s fee and official French taxes, which will add a total of 24% to each sale price.

  Low-mileage cars lead the way at Anglia 9 Apr 2014 (News)
  It’s still got the original Volvo paper floor mats in place, and its new owner is going to have to do a full recommission again if he wants to drive it. Amzingly, the Volvo was joined by a 1992 Renault 5 Campus, which was almost as mile-shy with a odometer reading of 202 miles. The R5 went for £3570, which is a new high for a Supercinq without a turbo. At the more conventional end of the market, the biggest seller of the day was a 1985 Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible at £46,200, followed by a 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL at £42,500, and a 1967 Jaguar S-type for a very strong £25,725.

  Report: Peking to Paris, day six 3 Jun 2013 (News)
  With the mud in the middle of a Time Trial, minutes as well as seconds were counting – those who stopped work out the right route took a long sweep out to the left, and missed the quagmire. The Renault 4 stopped near the end of the day with transmission problems, which sounds serious. Car 20, the 1933 Delage of Jan de Clerk, is joining us in Novosibirsk after suffering engine problems – a sad retirement given this is the third Peking to Paris for this car.
