There is a car I'd like to get to The Gathering, but I've only got a phone number (and business address), I'd like to get an email address and/or see if they are able to come to The Gathering. Car is loopy, and not too far from a ferry port, so fingers crossed.
Anyone able to help?

I can't help you with the French speaking, but i'm presuming that you've already tried speaking to the owner in English? Just that whenever i've been to France, or for that matter most of Europe i never have to speak the language as many of the people who live in mainland Europe speak English, and frankly, some people who live there speak it better than a lot of the people who live here!

Hearing Mr Burton's 306 rip through the Wyedean is still one of my favourite sounds of all time.

Vincent Foucart has built some incredible cars  And how's this for size?  2l v16.... Built by taking four cbr 600 heads, 16 cbr600 pistons and rods and combining the whole lot with a big lump of ally ....Legendary ! |

That picture is the 3.4L W12 he built, this is the V16 - he's actually back running it again this season instead of the rotary:  I don't have a direct contact for him any more but I do have numbers for a few of his friends that can get hold of him. However, if it's a similar time to this year you'll be dropping on a race weekend, so your chances would be slim to none, his business revolves around the racing. |

If you aren't fortunate enough to find an English-speaking Frenchman you could try my Mother's universal foreign translation system. It involves; Gesticulating wildly.* Adding random "o"s to sentences, e.g. How mucho is el handbago?*(Gesticulating wildly optional on phone calls).
