    That is certainly a very rare car because I don't think much were sold new in France!

    This registration number was issued in Paris in 1980.
    Do you still have yellow front lights? This was mandatory until 1993.

    yes, I do have the yellow lights and some other cool stuff-like the old Michelin maps and Paris parking permits.

    I think I have a period magazine with a test of such a car, in French of course.
    I will try to find it and let you know.
