A Review From Ted

Ted and Maura, clients from Boston celebrating their wedding anniversary, were not feeling on top form when Olivier and I picked them up last July. But with some last minute adustments to their tour we still managed to show them what they wanted to see. Ted very kindly left us a review:

"Susan is a fantastic tour guide! Plus we toured in her 50s era Citroen. How fun."

And the next day they were off to attend the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris. They certainly were packing in the highlights!

Servicing Our Classic Cars in the Loire Valley

When our specialist mechanic Dominique discovered that some nuts on the front transmission drive universal joint on Claudette had worn and were allowing some movement we immediately asked him to replace them with new bronze nuts. It is important to keep on top of maintenance like this in old cars and often quite simple actions like this make a big difference to how the cars drive. And of course it is imperative to keep the cars safe! If you love old cars, we'd love you to book a tour with us.
