The exciting places of Paris

• 

Look at this amazing coloured picture. Doesn't it make you just long to go to Paris? It has it all: the Eiffel Tower, 'classic' cars, a café and most definitely the right atmosphere. What strikes us immediately is the cleanliness of the street, no horse droppings or other rubbish. Perhaps it was cleaned up for the photo or removed when the photo was coloured in.

The location of the photograph is more difficult to determine. We think we have found the street (see google streetview) but a lot has changed in about 110 years (we think the picture was taken in the early 1900s) and now it has become a quiet, somewhat boring street.

Salon Rétromobile 2022

However, there are other locations in Paris that are not boring at all. And we don't mean the Moulin Rouge, which is for another time. No, we are talking about Salon Rétromobile. This year it will be held from 16 to 20 March and will be set up across pavilions 7.2 and 7.3.

Of course we can't wait to make our 'traditional' trip to Paris so the PreWarCar.com & PostWarClassic.com team will also have a stand. We expect an exciting week! More on this later. A bientôt!
