and its not just us owners.

Here in the UK, there are a lot of nice cars - I passed TWO Aston Martins (DB7 and DB9) on my 40 mile trip to Marlborough today, but the other day where I had to get something in Halfords, I drove past the entrance to get a good parkingspot with ample space. Once inside the shop, I was apporached by another customer asking if it was me with the Murena! - not many know the car, and then at the same time look enough to actually recognize the owner :-)

Even in this country, the Murena is still an eye-catcher.

A classic is a classic is a classic ;)

Whereas, a flashy car is just a flashy car to show that you have money enough to own it.

Today as i was geting into my car I was aproached by a woman who wanted to know what brand of car it was.. her husband had been wondeing and wondereing about it, and now she wanted to give him the answer :) .. I must say to his defence that my car only say "matra" and not "Talbot-Matra" on the back :)
