Though I have not owned a Citroen D or GSA for some
time, They have not strayed far from my heart. They
are but a few of the European cars I have owned over the years. I've
had two Saabs and am on my third Volvo. Two Mercedes 240D's have graced
my driveway over the years. All of them were restored or at least
serviced by me..
I started this page when I had the Citroen ID and added information on
GS's when that incredible car came my way. They are
very rare in
the United States because they were never officially imported here.
Eventually I will add a section on my most recent car, a 1987 Renault
Alliance convertible. I bought it little over a year ago, and I already
have made some import restoration discoveries. I will do my best to
keep you informed on progress. Despite the fact that she
was built less than 100 miles from where I live, in Wisconsin, parts
and service are scarce, so we AMC Renault owners must be inventive!

Renault information
After selling my Citroens, I spent several years with a 2002 Saab 9-5
wagon as my daily driver. For my project car, I chose a white 1987
Mercedes
240D. It was in very good cosmetic condition and was from a road
salt-free state, but it had numerous mechanics issues, which I solved,
one by one. At one time, I had a 1974, and was still intrigued by
diesel.. Though I enjoyed the car, my love of French cars never
abated.
