    HOME RUN GUYS! You must have the most overlooked Vlog on the web. Really delightful and what more could you ask for? A magical destination, epic food in a delightfully hospitable locale, an unusual and fun buggy and comic relief to boot. After 30 mins I wished it was longer. Mixing views up with the new camera angles was a nice addition. I was also wondering about a pole and 360 camera as in the last installment mounted to Elton's rear end might make for some dramatic views. As you were touring Saint Jeannet, It occurred to me how fun and beneficial it could be for you and Citroen if Citroen had a spot on the AMI website to share your love affair with the AMI But alas, when I searched for what I expected to be Citroen's cute and artsy AMI homepage, I instead found some pretentious display of digital boilerplate that could have just as well been selling industrial cleaning supplies. I'll drop Citroen a message with some links and a suggest they consider you as their AMI lifestyle ambassadors. Thanks again for the delightful time. Cheers!

Very nice we thought until we decided to visit St Jeane . Nightmare we will never forget as we came face to face with traffic in the opposite direction on those narrow streets . 🥴

The Twizy was of course made in Spain and they have now also being cloned elsewhere. Why don't ye go and get one - and keep the Ami. Here in Ireland I was quoted 12k for it - too pricey.
