Default Hi from Carcassonne

Just joined today and hope to bring something helpful to the club. I acquired my 1999 Terrano 2 2.7tdi recently as a Winter project and have recently re- registered etc. for France. I am retired and moved to France permenently in 2009. I have never owned a 4x4 so I am looking forward to new experiences that this vehicle brings. It is an old vehicle so I am expecting to draw on the patience of members to help keep the owning of this vehicle an economical and pleasant experience.

Welcome aboard and you've come to the right place for all things Terrano

One or two members on here from across the channel so I'm sure they'll be along to say bonjour
