France

[Guest]

Hi y'all
Any peeps out there who know anything about where the best 4WD mechanics are
in Northern France? Preferably Brittany
Cheers
Renate

Renate,
Well Brittany is not technically Northern France, but to answer your question for the real Northern France I'd say it would have to be me ?!
Western France/ Brittany I don't have a clue unfortunately.
I'm told the Brittanish (?) language resembles Welsh if this can cheer you up ?
Good luck
Denis

Hi Denis
Okidokes! You a mechanic then....? (assumptions aside, anybody who has an 80 series based in 'northern france' (Bretagne) is fair game for me to come to visit! - and do some stuff with me on l'beast as far as I'm concerned.....
Seriously, you live in France? Whereabouts? Anywhere within 'cruising distance' of Carhaix-Plouguer, or Finistere?.... this is where I'll be based (nearer to nord afrique) than da UK....
Ciao
Renate
Who definitely will have to learn French now...

Hi Denis
Hey ho! I never thought it would be easy! Okay, I'll have to ask around a few locals and get some recommendations for a decent 4WD mechanic - well you never know when one might need one!
So, what would I say "excuse me, could you recommend a good 4WD mechanic please?" I only know "excuse me..." in French.... Oh well, methinks must invest in a half-decent conversational French book.....
You live not too far from Cerefino Lamb then?
Cheers
Renate

Renate,
Picture the Finist=C3=A8re departement (29) at the far western end, you'll find me in the Nord department (59) at the far northern end of the hexagon, I'm afraid I might be a bit too far to be of any help unless you're really in trouble.
Make sure you take your raincoat either way
