I searched in vain to find a 'green with envy' smiley but to no avail. You jammy bugger!!! Please take lots of pics and share them. Having never been out of the UK, pics are the only way I know the world isn't flat!!!

Hope you and Tommy have a great time. My 'bliss' has a flat battery, so I can't even drive her out of her parking space

How weird... I had a dream about the Citroen SM a few nights ago. A neighbor of mine at home had one.

Of course a Beat driver dreaming about a big car might not be all that strange!

I am in Vienna now on a holiday. You sure have some cool cars in Europe. Saw a Smart roadster today - Collector's Edition. Too bad they discontinued those cuties.

The Fiat 500 is impressive. With some really clever marketing it just might be a hit in the US.
