Even having toured only a fraction of it, I can safely say that France is a beautiful place. Not just Paris, mind you; I was blown away by the Alsace region’s rolling countryside near Strasbourg when I visited on vacation—perfectly timed, of course, to coincide with the Rallye de France.

Recently, French photographer David Marvier sent in some photos he captured during a meet held in the Bordeaux region…and they’re so gorgeous that I started checking the prices of flights! The Atlantic Oldtimer Association regularly organizes rallies and activities, and Marvier’s photos of the Bordeaux event show a group of well-loved classics and their owners enjoying cars as intended.
