Hello From me and my C15 van

Post by JEREMYH »

Hello everybody

I made a post on here about my C15 courier van it is the one left doing the highest miles in the UK

Last week while making a delivery in Ascot race course a member from here who was working there or maybe just loitering :lol: came up to me and started speaking to me about my C15 we had a chat and he said he was a member on here So I have come back to say hello and might stick around here as I love older French cars and also look after my daughters 307

We seem to be getting quite a few new C15s here recently. Welcome, I'm sure you'll enjoy the forums.
Was the guy at Ascot wearing a funny hat by any chance? I think we all know who he is, there's a good thread with some pictures somewhere. Unfortunately I'm at work and on my phone so I couldn't dig it out for you.

I probably was NOT wearing my top hat and tails, but I remember talking to somebody about Citroens. Mind you, I do talk a lot anyway! :D

A couple of C15's came up for sale in Cullompton recently - coincidence?

Another coincidence is possiblly the only other C15 working for a living not 1m miles away - in Exeter, where Devon Dogg has been making similar claims!

Having different usernames on different forums is one thing, using 2 on the same forum is guaranteed to confuse.

I was quite interested in your neighbour's van but, if i remember rightly, the auction ended at the wrong time for me. Then I think it came up again as breaker - but it was all white (again?) by then - that's why I thought it another one (although I'm surprised i didn't twig, 'cos of the plates!).

By then my C15 was back in London, so going over there for a few parts in a Cherokee, isn't really financially viable. Shame really.
