We would prefer to buy here, but second hand cars, like you say, are so expensive and at the moment we have to watch the pennies!<br /><br />JEAN, you are right....the French don't seem to have the culture of exchanging old cars for new like they do in the UK, which does not then make for a second hand market in cars. We prefer to keep cars until they are really too expensive to keep in repair, and this is what has happened to our current car.Verahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235143664894609891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-833961486558166275.post-65566253484326594312016-10-01T08:37:40.326+02:002016-10-01T08:37:40.326+02:00Around us people seem to keep their old cars going...Around us people seem to keep their old cars going rather than change them so maybe there are fewer good used cars for sale.
