Justin Banks to be 'Juste Banques...'

• 

What makes a young succesfull vintage car dealer move with his young family from London to just outside Toulouse, South France? Returning from Spain we stopped for a quick pause and a 'petit rouge' in the sleepy Bessières and asked Justin Banks: "My wife is French and we wanted more room for our children. At the price of a London middle class dwelling, you get a small mansion down here. "(having checked the house we wouldn't use the word 'small') "With the internet a vintage car dealer is no longer fixed to a location. Also I found a retired British ex-F1 mechanic nearby who is gladly willing to help resolve technical issues. Also there are excellent bodyshops very nearby, so there was little to keep me in London." All that aside Justin Banks likes to concentrate more and more on French cars which have more the lines of his taste. See his recently acquired Delage D8 Coupe. Still Justin is a realist. "I pay for a very substantial mortgage and if I do not succeed to sell anything from here, you'll see us back in London within a year."
