Since spending a couple of years in Paris, I know Dauphines well, but
the most memorable recollection of one is in the mountains of West
Virginia, as I driving a 53 Mercury, and could not keep up with a
Dauphine around the curves. It was very frustrating, I had the power,
but could not negotiate the curves like that little car.
