Met a couple from France today, in a 2006 110

#1 Post by archaeology_student » Sun Jun 24, 2007 9:30 pm

After the party at Don's today as I was cruising back along the low road to Park Royal I spotted a fully decked out Defender 110. I had to turn around, and investigate. The Capilano R.V. park was where we stopped and pulled up to the vehicle and a nice couple.

They are from France doing a tour of North America, and it was a pleasure to meet David and Monica. They are in a brand new 2006 110 td5 rover which had a beautiful custom interior. They did not speak much English, and we do not speak much French, but we understood one anther perfectly :wink:

They seemed like a great couple, and are in town for a day or two down at the Capilano R.V. park. and are heading out to quieter pastures. David showed me the Rover quickly, and I got a couple of pictures. We left themas quickly as we arrived, because we could see that they were exhausted.

They told us they had not seen many Rovers in Canada... *lol* we told them about the opening they missed, and the Rovers that we got to see.

If you are interested check out their site in French or English (Google translation).

This is Monica and David.
