Hi from Carcassonne

retrogarage · 13-07-2016, 10:11

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.
