Le Couvent Diary

The day to day of a B&B and vineyard in the Languedoc region of southern France.

Anyone need a new, old car

Posted by: admin in For sale on

Three cars, a scooter and six bikes are too many vehicles for an eco-friendly B&B like Le Couvent. Two of them have to go and the first up for a thorough scrub is this handsome Mercedes 450 SL which was originally owned by the illustrious Albert Finney. It has a hard top and a soft top and a stonking 4.5 litre engine (so it goes like the clappers). At 25 years old and with just 69,000 miles on the clock it's in good condition, is barely run-in and is a snip at 5000 quid (no offers) for the first person here with the filthy lucre in their hands. It has been exported here to Roujan, but we have not changed the number plate to a French one yet. You could either drive it back to England and re-import it, or do the necessary paperwork here in France if you intended keeping it here. Ali and I are just too hopeless to do the official stuff, so it would be up to you. Hence the low, low, low price.
