No. 447; history
20 Jul 2012
No. 447 ended up in the collection, but with a nice detour. He was in a museum in Grenoble, on top of a mountain.
During one of his quests in the 1980s, the collector visited the museum and photographed the M35. He assumed that the car wasn't for sale, but secretly put a business card in the ashtray.
The museum was shut down early this century and the cars were sold. The M35 came into the hands of a Dutchman who lives in France and he found the card. Long story short, the M35 went to North Holland.
He's been on Citromobile 2011 and he's attracted a lot of attention, a witness to that is this videohttp://youtu.be/8kzRisZ7VMw. He was then sold there too and is now enjoyed in Germany. The above picture was taken during an old timer meeting in Essen.
