2009-06-14/Classic French cars (and a few others) at Gisselfeld

By Michael de Laine, The Copenhagen Voice, 14 June 2009

Gisselfeld, a manor house near Haslev, Zealand, was the venue for a classic car show today, where a very wide range of cars, vans and motorcycles from the 1920s to the 1980s, and some (rather) later and thus not classics, could be seen.

The Copenhagen Voice talked about French cars with Tim Davies, an ex-pat from Britain, who is knowledgeable about many – but not all – Citroën models.

The classic French cars in the video interview are seasoned with a very few shots of other makes and models.

Among the exhibited cars were an MG Y-type, with two MGBs as neighbours; a 1951 MG TD; a similar MG showing the lift-up bonnet access; an Austin-Healey Frogeye Sprite, with two examples its larger sister, the Austin-Healey 3000 and Austin-Healey 100, immediately behind, as well as the ubiquitous MGB; and an Alfa Romeo Montreal.

Triumphs, Fiats, Fords, Porches were also well represented.
