The big car smash got me completely 😂. Villefranche is sooo beautiful. In 1975 I was under training in the carrier HMS Bulwark and we were at a mooring. I ran the Officers’ Fast Motor Launch to the town jetty. Very dashing, just like the Ami!! My launch did hit an unlit battleship buoy one moonless night!

In the 70s it was traditional for motorcyclists to pass their bike test and get straight into a 600cc Reliant 3-wheeler with no lessons - which is what I did after 6 years- I drove on an urban motorway within days - and immediately got pulled over by the police because the tax disk had fallen off the windscreen of my dodgy-looking vehicle ! I'd also had one solitary lesson with BSM and decided that there was no way I could learn that way... Given their handling peculiarities I reckon Reliants should ONLY be driven by motorcyclists .. It took me 7 years before I actually took my test in a 600cc 2CV ... the passenger's seat became derailed and I think I passed my test partly because the examiner was so impressed at someone taking their test with a full motorcycle licence :D The examiner had me pull over for someone who'd actually had lessons in the usual way and were liable to crash into us at some point.! After infrequently driving a couple of 2 litre Peugeot diesels I've been "only" a regular cyclist for the past 14 years and will with luck shortly be faced with driving in France on the wrong side of the road - so I will do the online French theory and this time am seriously considering taking some refresher lessons in the UK - just so I know how to operate a modern car - especially if I initially use a hire car.. Given the craziness of 2016, I will quite probably be renting in France for the first 12 months until I have safely renewed my visa and one of these would be almost perfect if available locally by some means or other... - perfect for visiting sale properties in a small area - though I wouldn't rule out doing that on a bicycle - electrified or not ...

There is something incredibly appealing about the Ami - it is simplistic, gives you the things you need and nothing at all beyond that. Well done Citroen for making the Ami a reality and it really is just what is needed to reduce pollution and congestion yet provide a huge grin. Started following your channel a few weeks ago, this first video of the Ami popped up tonight so I am glad to see the day it arrived! I am a huge petrolhead and I really loathe the excess and complicated stupidity of modern cars - 1970s, 1980s car are where my love lies - much simpler and more fun, like the 2CV! I love your enthusiasm and ‘don’t follow the norm’ approach to life - being a flag bearer of the rainbow variety myself - it is how I live. And what a fabulous part of the world too, I’ve longed to go to the French Rivera in my Volvo, Bev. One day, one day… keep up the fabulous work and can’t wait to follow the ongoing adventures. We need more interesting people like yourselves in our lives!
