A traction park


Attracting a lot of attention in Morrison's supermarket car park, this beautifully maintained Citroën can also be seen here on the traction owners' website.  It is a 1949 LHD built in Paris, bought by a local owner in 1987, since when it has done over 100,000 miles. 

Having been a doctor's car for 29 years, it was imported to England in 1969, then registered VLM59G, so from the French department of le Nord, of which Lille is the principal town.
