What a great offer! A Mochet Commerciale

[bruetsch-freak]

I´m not very familiar with the Mochet cars but as far I know are there only very very few Mochet commerciale known to survive. Bruce ownes a lot but without him I don´t know an other person wich owns one of this type.

One of our Scottish friends has a Mochet van but its the earlier model with the sit up and beg mudgaurds, I think its the only one in the uk.

I think that there are more survivors of the ealier then of the later (now offered) model. By the way, there is a website about Mochet cars www.mochet.org

  Bob my ears pricked up when you mentiond the above Mochet van, why isn't it on the Register?  Was it by any chance the one that was sold at the 1996 Bruce Weiner auction in London?

Hi Jean, if you mean the auction by Christie´s in 1997, no. The sold car was one of the earlier type.
