Best served by talking to one of the French collectors and getting the real knowledge written into the text and a visit for filming. I know that is not the way filming works once a Director has decided what history is to be, and to be shown, but often it is more accurate and better produced as your dealing with interesting cars and people and not preconceived ideas and London. Step forward Jean-Do and chums to steal the show.
I am not so sure of the whereabouts of an early Ligier in Britain but the Bubblecar Museum had later ones including mine. The worst car I have ever driven, and that is saying something as I have driven some real clangers. Indeed there is a more interesting and funny TV program in itself, 5 proper car nuts offering their five worst drives over 5 nights. Sunday the winner is revealed and the prize is Noel Edmunds does London to Edinburough in it. If that Ligier was an improvement on the JS4 or JS6 then you have a real good time driving that on an old fashioned trunk route. The French must of hated 16 year olds as much as me. I will stick to my 1955 designed Goggomobil which probably will not appear in the program despite being involved in the creation of both Mini and Imp, our best known second generation post war small cars, one of which is guaranteed to be in it 'as the killer of the Bubblecar' amongst other untrue popular myths and hype. Still I will not find out as I got rid of my TV and licence as it was to full of wrong factual information and propaganda, let alone the pure visual garbage of soaps etc. to be taken seriously anymore. Probably put you off my info but it is there for what it is as I hope you make a fine peace of motoring journalism in the way Top Gear isn't.
