Thanks Oppo for all the great posts and comments, for finding people to make me feel at home when I went to Canada, and most of all for me finding this group of slightly-crazy guys that make multiple roadtrips through Europe every year. Oppo will for always be lodged in my mind.

If you want to keep up to date on the slow progress on my Renault 17 restoration, or my other adventures, you can follow my instagram:

O r if you want to become part of our Euro-biased (but open to anyone) meet/offtopic Whatsappgroups send an email to europpomeet@gmail.com

Come over to Drive Tribe. It’s nice over there, and they have cookies.

Gosh I really wanted to go to a Oppomeet, they look like a hoot. I’ll see you in the whatsapp though, it’s best to stay connected.

I appreciate the diversity that the Europpos bring to the table. Thank you for your many high quality posts over the years. I actually didn't know you had a Renault 17. Pretty interesting car, that.
