Notes:

David: The 28 is of '50-52 vintage. It is a beautifully made engine and absolutely one of my favourites. Light weight, nicely proportioned, but no doubt not up to contemporary power levels. Their artistry, both in aesthetics and execution will always enthrall me. Beautiful, glass hard cylinders, fine steel fins, superbly proportioned screws, magnificent needle valve assemblies and the feel of real pride and craftsmanship is something of which the French can be really proud.
