What an incredidle list. Casually thrown in is a Ferrari 250 California Spider. Think that may be it in the photo covered in old magazines. Some of the photos almost look like a modelmakers work. If it was April 1st I would have my doubts.

That is it, the ex Alain Delon car; .... obvious place to store your old mags and a few bits of furniture.

      Or anyone here know the most practical way of getting there? I thought there were organised coach tours at one time.

It is rumoured that Artcurial will show the collection at its present location to a "limited number" of "very interested" customers. They will receive VIP-treatment, and exclusive view of the cars, etc. etc. That preview will of course cost something ....

So do not think that you can view the cars just by going there....

The place where the cars are stored is visible on google earth however, and you can salivate in front of your screen, if you so desire.
Have a look at the end of this excellent article which gives the exact location:
http://lautomobileancienne.com/collection-roger-baillon/

In my opinion this is just a perfectly orchestrated marketing campaign by the Artcurial people, and I will not loose my sleep over it.

I would have thought that Eurostar from London, then Metro/RER across Paris - the station is 2 minutes from the exhibition centre.

I can go there and back in a day from down here, London is much closer so should be possible as well

It may well be handier Simon, but will the good and the great off this forum be able to brave the horrors that awaits them at the Gare du Nord??!!
