The Spitfire



When I first met Xavier he told me about this crazy idea he had. He wanted to buy a little English sports car for his dad's 60th birthday. I thought it was just a pipe dream. This weekend I found out it totally wasn't. We went to Frankfurt to make it a reality and drove back to Paris (9 hours) in this little guy. You see, Xavier is not crazy rich. He is just crazy generous...presenting: the perfectly restored 1968 Triumph Spitfire in wedgwood blue.














Even Louise and Jules (niece and nephew) are pretty impressed

WOW, beautiful car! All except the steering wheel on the right. Bad memories of driving those itty bitty
English roads.
