New french Atom owner

[jc]

Hello everybody,
I'm happy to introduce myself as a new future french Atom owner .

I've ordered my Atom 300 last month, and if everything is working well, I should receive it at the end of March 2007 (Monza should recognize me easily ).
I've been reading this forum for a few months, and now I'll be happy to participate in it.
I've been driving a Lotus Elise 111 Mk2 since 2002, which has done 27000 miles, including 4250 miles on track days.
Now, my dear Elise will take a merited rest, as I'll use it only on road, and I'll use the Ariel Atom for my track days.

I tick every day off on my calendar, like a prisoner, waiting for my new toy...
Roll on March !

Congrats on your order - the Atom will partly make up for being French I guess

[Bruce Fielding]

Bienvenue!

I am sure with those great French roads, you will have an enormous amount of fun!

Hello everyone too  .

This post will become THE french owner's topic  !!!

I'm also french and ordered a 300 one month ago, and I am difficultly waiting for April to receive it 
It's the sixth on eight Atom which will be delivered in France in 2007. So we should be 11 or 12 owners in several months.

I'm 31 yo, and my actual car is a black Exige, which gives me lot of hapiness, but unfortunately I won't keep both !

I read the forum every day but my english is to bad so I do not dare to speak in public  (thank google traductor  )

See you soon with the Atom !!

J'étais aussi au Val de Vienne le 5 Aout  !!!!
Je suis de Paris (peut-être la 1ère Atom parisienne ?!!! )

[Bruce Fielding]

Nous sommes a Paris depuis trois moins...



In fact I was thinking it would make a nice long weekend run next spring - John?

Et non la premiere Atom parisienne ce sera moi.....First sur la liste de commande de J.P.B

[Gilou]

[John Lloyd]

I'm in Paris on 9 and 10th October.  I'm taking Brenda to see George Michael at Bercy.

I like this ones of Atoms "kissing"

One More! Encore une!

I've ordered mine in August and will hopefully get it in May (for my birthday??). Ce sera une 245.
I got the sport cars virus starting with an MX5 1.8 mark 2 and continued with an Opel Speedster 2.2 that I had to sell because of my relocation in the mountains (Jura) where a 4x4 was more appropriate!
Now is time to move to the next, almost ultimate, step!!! ATOM!! 

Ca me donne l'hiver pour construire a garage et acceuillir mon futur jouet avec tout le respect qu'il se doit!

Tiger!

Paris ou banlieu quelle difference à l'echelon nationale, je suis quand même le premier....

Pardon, mais Ross etait le premier ici! Mars 2001
