Spotted 1303 in France

Post by Tony Z »

The boat pulled into France yesterday and first thing I see is a 1303 sitting on the dock for sale.
It really is nice, with some novel ideas....

Excuse the phone pictures.

It sounds a lot more glamorous than it really is.
Yesterday was the first time I put my foot onto land in 5 weeks. Working 7 days a week, you only get to see things between the ship and pub, when you can get ashore that is...

Think he is using the hooter grills for speaker grills, good idea... :wink:

Did you bag it, and place it into the coal bunker........ :lol: :lol:

Thanks Herman

the gauges and hooter grills are a nice touch as is the center console.
I just worry about the state of the dashboard underneath that massive fake wood cover.
But from a quick once over, the car really looks good
