Hello all, just introducing myself. I have been a keen collector of French military equipment since completing my commando course at Givet whilst i was on attachment. I currently have a Hotchkiss M201, a Peugeot SX8 and the turret from an EBR 75mm and am looking forward to hearing more of your restorations, learning more about the vehicles and seeing your pictures.

Merci Yves, i have been quite lucky as French vehicles are quite rare in the UK, although probably not as rare as in Sydney 😀

Here is my Panhard EBR turret, it was rescued from a range in southern France and as such needs a lot of restoration. It will soon be moved into my garden were i am building a shelter for it.

Building a shelter for EBR turret has a more or less distant relationship with Brexit ::lol ...?

I'm out... ::bievenue Shelby. We'll do our best to help you to restart the SX ::biere
