je voudrais savoir plus au sujet de votre bas de page de XJ. Est-ce un campeur ?

 

note: I'm using the translator ... i do not speak any form of french, save for a few swear words in Hatian.

Bon jour, Jean-Philippe,

 

Vous êtes l'accueil pour joindre notre forum si vous êtes intéressé dans le Comanche. N'est ce pas nécessaire de celui posséder.

 

Est-ce que vous etes certain sont seulement 2 ou 3 dans tout de la France? J'ai un ami dans Grèce. Il m'a dit une fois qu'il et son fils a trouvé un Comanche abandonné sur le côté de la route, approche d'Athènes. Je crois que le camion a été vendu dans les numéros comparativement "significatif" (pas "grand") dans l'Europe.

 

Votre Cherokee est très impressionnant, et j'aime la caravane beaucoup. C'est une grande idée. J'ai ici l'accident d'un Cherokee. Les dommages sont dans le devant, ainsi peut-être je commencerai un projet similaire. Félicitations.

 

Bienvenu à notre groupe.

------------------------------------

Good day, Jean-Philippe,

 

You are welcome to join our forum if you are interested in the Comanche. It is not necessary to own one.

 

Are you certain there are only 2 or 3 in all of France? I have a friend in Greece. He told me once that he and his son found a Comanche abandoned on the side of the road, near Athens. I believe the truck was sold in comparatively "significant" (not "large"} numbers in Europe.

 

Your Cherokee is very impressive, and I like the trailer very much. It is a great idea. I have here the wreck of a Cherokee. The damage is in the front, thus perhaps I will begin a similar project. Congratulations.

 

Welcome to our group.

in France was the MJ never officialy imported, in Germany are some more.

but to find one for a good price isn´t simple.

in France is 1 to sale, for 13000 euro = 20.000 $ :nuts:

I hope I find one for 3000 $ with many to repair..

 

 

:waving:

$20K! :eek: What are France's vehicle import laws? I think you could import one from the US east coast for half that space available. And we're both RHD countries.

EAGLE,

 

How many languages do you speak?

One: English.

 

I had two years of Spanish, four years of French, and two years of Latin going through school, and my wife is from Chile. It's pretty confusing, because now the Spanish keeps pushing the French out of my tiny brain. There was a time when I could actually converse (at a rudimentary level) in French, but I don't think I can do it today.

I was thinking the same thing. And I am on the east coast, and I happen to have a few Comanches for sale

 

Jean-Philippe: Nous avons besoin de parler!

Look towards sweden. They have decent prizes and there are always a couple of good looking manches for sale (and even more bad looking ones). Not that much longer to drive if you already consider going to germany.

 

2560EUR: http://www.blocket.se/vi/15469844.htm?ca=6_s

 

2027EUR: http://www.blocket.se/vi/15650892.htm?ca=6_s

 

3200EUR: http://www.blocket.se/vi/15315171.htm?ca=6_s

 

By the way, thats one (and a half) sweet looking XJ you got there :D

Yes thats right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1/4 pounder... :nuts: :???: :dunno:

 

Jules: Mmm-mmmm. That is a tasty burger. Vincent, ever have a Big Kahuna Burger?

[Vincent shakes his head]

Jules: Wanna bite? They're real tasty.

Vincent: Ain't hungry.

Jules: Well, if you like burgers give 'em a try sometime. I can't usually get 'em myself because my girlfriend's a vegitarian which pretty much makes me a vegitarian. But I do love the taste of a good burger. Mm-mm-mm. You know what they call a Quarter Pounder with cheese in France?

Brett: No.

Jules: Tell 'em, Vincent.

Vincent: A Royale with cheese.

Jules: A Royale with cheese! You know why they call it that?

Brett: Because of the metric system?

Jules: Check out the big brain on Brett! You're a smart mother@#$%er. That's right. The metric system. What's in this?

Brett: Sprite.

Jules: Sprite, good. You mind if I have some of your tasty beverage to wash this down?

Brett: Go right ahead.

Jules: Ah, hit the spot.

 

Pulp Fiction...

Eagle,

the import from usa to France, the shipping cost are expensive than comes custom (5%) and taxes (20%) and than comes the difficult part.. the homologation..

 

I think about, but I think is it better to find one in germany and repair it..

 

@Joop

I see their in Sweden, and if I don´t find one in Germany, I go to sweden..

(but I don´t understand the language)
