I was looking for something else when I found this

http://www.clubpeugeotuk.org/gallery/03_series.html

It occurs to me that some of the 'younger' Javelin owners might not be aware of the similarities between these vehicles This site shows several variations on the theme.

If only . . . .

Many a time I have been caught out by that. One of the first times was when I chased one to its home to pin down the driver. He lived in the next road along to mine, after I chased him for a couple of miles. He was a Frenchman and, yes, I found out my mistake!

Keith, you have just reminded me . . .

In 1967 as I came towards the end of my apprenticeship as a marine engineer, I needed just a few 'sea days' to earn my qualification, so rather than go on another deep sea voyage - possibly 6 months in those days - I worked on the Newhaven / Dieppe ferries.

You can imagine my surprise to find Dieppe FULL of 'Javelins'!
