All our yesterdays.
Warmtoast,
What a wonderful group of holiday snaps ! And a lovely pic of the Mosel vineyard slopes. The Mosel valley was quite handy for Geilenkirchen, and their wine was one of our favourites. Little shop in town sold it at Dm2 a bottle (10 pfennig back on the bottle). In winter we used to leave it on outside kitchen windowsill to cool. Delicious !
I think the Import regulations must have relaxed between our dates. I believe the two year-rule was in force throughout our tour ('60/'62). This meant that if we wanted to change cars (as you did), we had to do it in our first year. The 404 had been announced a fortnight after I got my 403 (and I could have got a Coupleur Jaeger on the 404, too). But the German agent now wanted £100 plus my 403, and I reckoned that too much...D.
