Well done H. 2CVs used to be my favourites. Hated driving a mates with that funny gear selection on the dashboard and the folding windows were funny. I remember being on holiday in one with another couple and the roof rolled back. Passed me the only map we had to read and it left my hands at speed blowing down the mountains :2funny:. Boy was this serious guy ( a weather forecaster) cross with me for that holiday. Either the map episode or me looking skyward and saying "Nice one cirrus" after lengthy boring lectures about cloud formations. ( A play on the old Nice one Cyril chant that fans used to give
Cyril Knowles of Tottenham.
Anyway I digress - great shot and title.

Congrats H!
A total of 15 votes this week. Now here's a thought, according to the list at the bottom of the forum there are 21 people logged on, and the other day it was in the high 20's. So not only do only a few enter but quite a lot don't bother to vote. Strange!

You cannot force people to vote Alan. Not many comments on images either so not likely to vote in a comp you are not involved in.

Very pleased, nay stunned to have won with the 2CV. I've never driven one, although I think I may have been a passenger in one once and blotted the memory out.
So thanks for the votes. Now I have to go away and think of another topic and find some time to post a still life shot. Lost my music mojo for a few minutes and got the camera out yesterday - hopefully something will turn out to be all right for the challenge ;)
