Ah Ha the most iconic of French vans, but while it pays homage to the H series the beam rear axle limits its rear suspension ingenuity!

The authentic van had single trailing arms at hub level and with Dioresse suspension legs the rear of the van dipped down to almost a ramp like level!
Which of course is nothing like the new rendition you have posted, (although attractive enough for Euro-Francophile like me!

I used to work a lot on these at Garage Dalle Freres in Roncq 59 as an exchange student at Lille U in the 70's.

Having an eternal penchant for French ladies here is Sophie Marceau and a Citroen of a different era Oh la la!

Peel or Ramsey would be nice!

We spent both of our TT weeks in Peel. Peel is about our speed. We enjoyed the pubs there. We enjoyed The Swan pub in Ramsey. We enjoyed The Raven pub in Ballaugh. We enjoyed the Sulby Glen Hotel pub in Sulby. We enjoyed Bushy's Beer Tent on the promenade in Douglas. Basically we enjoyed the entire Isle of Man.

For that matter, we also enjoyed the pubs all over England, Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Scotland. The Brewdog brewpub located below the Royal Mile in Edinburgh Scotland was a favorite of ours. The Crown Liquor Saloon in Belfast Northern Ireland was a favorite of ours. And we enjoyed all of the pubs on our pub crawl through the Temple Bar District in Dublin, where we learned the actual historical story behind this song:

I know that people make fun of British food, but we really enjoyed it, right down to the mushy peas. We especially liked HP Brown Sauce.
