French Sedan is a Coup for Diesel Division



CWMC Headquarters, Ab: HQ was a buzz of activity Friday, with agents from all directions converging on the storage bunker, hoping to catch a glimpse of the latest of the President's ill-advised forays into the Land of Extinct French Diesel Luxury Cars of the 80's.

The 604 arrived late evening, hand-delivered by Agent 747 who braved local law enforcement to limp the wounded, unregistered Peugeot from his own collection to the CWMC compound several miles away.

Cloaked in an aura of Pininfarina-grade cool only slightly ruined by the smell of hot clutch, the big Pooj rattled away contentedly whilst the President, in a quite obviously over-celebrated state, slurred enthusiastically on about the sense of style and taste the 604 would doubtlessly impart to its new caregiver, were it actually driveable. Meanwhile, it has achieved indoor storage status alongside the CX2.5d until further notice.

Update: Agent 533 repaired the shift linkage, allowing for a short test drive which served to confirm Agent 747's assertion that the 604 was indeed slower than the second coming of Christ, but without the harsh ride associated with most other biblical events.
