Je reviens à mon projet de présenter la plupart de mes 55000 photos (nouveau compte approximatif. On se rapproche du présent !).

2015. On revient à Vichel aux vacances de Toussaint. Il y a beaucoup à faire après le décès de ma mère...

A part la dernière (ancien village troglodytique de Périer), le reste est à Saurier avec son pont chapeauté d’une chapelle. Et une Dyane hors d’âge !

Citroën-Lomax 224 

The Lomax is a "Kit-Car" type vehicle generally fitted with Citroen 2CV components which began production in 1983 by the Lomax Motor Company of Willoughton, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire. In the late 1980s production was transferred to the Mumford Motor Company of Gigg Mill, Nailsworth, Gloucestershire, where it was produced until the 1990s. As well as the UK, Lomax vehicles were also marketed in the Netherlands and in the UK. Germany. Since 2009 the Lomax has been produced again by Cradley Motor Works in St. Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex. The models it sells are the 223 (3 wheels), the 224 (4 wheels) and the Supertourer (also 4 wheels). The original prototype, built in 1982, was designed by Nigel Whall. It had a custom-built four-wheel chassis that was specially built with a shorter wheelbase than the donor vehicle, a Citroen Ami8. The Lomax's design is reminiscent of the legendary Morgan 3-wheeler of the 1930s. The Lomax was comprised of a fiberglass body mounted on an unmodified Citroen 2CV or Dyane chassis. Later, a steel tube chassis was introduced. Lomax vehicles are generally of the Roadster type, without a roof. The early three-wheelers were actually four-wheel models, with the two rear wheels close together, in the style of the Heinkel bubble cars of the 1960s, however that structure was quickly scrapped in favor of a single rear wheel, as that road tax for 3-wheelers in Britain was ostensibly cheaper than for 4-wheelers. Later versions were true tricycles with two wheels at the front and one at the rear. A 4-wheel drive version with an unmodified Citroen 2CV chassis would later appear. The names of the vehicles were; 223 (2 cylinders, 2 seats, 3 wheels), or 224 (2 cylinders, 2 seats, 4 wheels). Some models used engines from the Citroen GS or GSA. The latter were called 424 (4 cylinders, 2 seats, 4 wheels). Lomax vehicles are typically equipped with 29-hp engines, weigh approximately 450 kilograms (990 pounds), have two seats, and have a top speed of 140 km/h (87 mph).
