It seems to have parts from Citroen.

I can see hints of 126 in the look, plus the front view has a squared off scootercar/frisky look about it

I think it's got that Enfield look about it   :-\ from the front.

Blob, I make you bang on right on that, I knew it looked familiar!

Anyone recognise the two-seater turqoise trike with the centre joystick?  My money's on it being a Porquerolles.  One electric motor powering each rear wheel and a castor-type front wheel.

As for the glass and ally cube - Quasar?  Mini-based concept from the sixties.  Not many survivors (oddly enough) but I know of one in Toulouse in the care of a serious microcar enthusiast.

Looks like a good time was had by all as usual, bet the prices were sky high though.  My last trip was a few years ago with a Neil Engert tour which included Dave barchetta595.  Happy days.

Dear Nick

I think that blue Porquerolles is the one from the Brussels Auto Museum (Autoworld) Some good mirocars in that collection.
