Last weekend's Epoqu'Auto in Lyon was extremely busy. We can't talk in numbers, but the organisers must have been quite happy with the box office output. We had the chance to meet our friends from ACCLC, Christoph Grohe and Christian Decombas. The atmosphere was colourful with lots of used parts yet also high quality automobilia and unexpected cars. We were amazed with the amount of delicious French rarities that were either on display or for sale. Have you ever seen a line up of twelve(!) Rochet Schneiders including their first 1895 model? Or what about fourteen(!) George Irat cars among which the rarely seen 2L Torpedo Tourisme? As if that was not enough we checked the Lyon marque La Buire, a massive Cottin & Desgoutes project, the (one of the very few original) ultralow Rally ABC (who was first with these crossing headlight supports?), the wonderful OHC Scap; all these at the stand of Osenat. It was really very much worthwhile. Something to keep in mind for next year's calendar.
