Sorry Baz
The bars will come in handy for the kids bikes. The problem I have at the moment is getting them because I live in London and they are in Birmingham. He was expecting then to be picked up with a Sorpio estate  because the bolts for the cycle rack are all rusty and he didnt want to dismantle them. The seller has kindly aggreed to dismantle them and bind them all together.
As I have just bought myself a new toy (Cagiva Navigator ), I am thinking of riding up to collect them. Still, I dont need them till I go to France in August, so I've got plenty of time lol.
Any, thanks again Baz for spotting them.
Now where can I get that Wood and Leather steering wheel, I am sure someone has got more than they need
Cheers

Baz,
going to a small town called Argenton which is somewhere between Poiteire and La Rochelle, just SE of the Loire valley. First time driving this far in France although ridden to Le Mans many times.
Have a look at www.argentonfishing.co.uk for a look at where we are saying[ Driving from Le Havre.

Andrew,
I don't honestly know. I bought them along with a set for a focus. The total was 140 quid including VAT and postage
Pete, We go to a place called argeles which is on the med coast, about 12 miles from spain. We are going to look at property as well cos that is where I want to live in the next few years!!

Sounds great mate. Just looked it up on the map. I once stayed near Monte Carlo and Nice one Chtistmas many years ago. Totaly changed my attitude towards the French. They were very nice people.
Hell of a drive though!!!
Now you are going to tell me you drive from Calise
Hope you find the New Gaff on this visit
Good luck

Pete, I always drive from Calais....it is the only way to go!!
I have done the route to Argeles 6 times including this one as well as Dresden in East Germany in my Rover 75 diesel and once in the same car to Porto pollensa in Majorca!! Dover to Calais, down to Barcelona (at rush hour!!) and Barcelona to Majorca then drive to the northern part of the island. We only stayed for a week!!
I wouldn't have it any other way!
