Paris, France. This interesting structure greeted us upon our arrival.

Paris, France. This rare beauty was sitting in the courtyard of the place where I was staying. Why anyone would try to drive such a car in Paris traffic is beyond me. It was gone shortly after I arrived and I stupidly only got 2 mediocre shots of it.

As best as I can tell it is a C Type of which only 53 were made. Perhaps it is a knockoff of some type, but it sure looked real.

From the internet:

The Jaguar C-Type (also called the Jaguar XK120-C) is a racing sports car built by Jaguar and sold from 1951 to 1953. The "C" designation stood for "competition". The car used the running gear of the contemporary XK120 in a lightweight tubular frame and aerodynamic aluminium body. A total of 53 C-Types were built.

Tour buses are probably a great way to get a quick look at Paris attractions are so you can get a better idea of what you want to see in more detail. We never took one, but instead did a lot of walking which I've concluded is the best way to properly see things. Unfortunately, you can log a lot of miles (kilometers) and if your dogs are like mine, they can bark quite loudly at the end of the day particularly if you spend much time on the cobbles.
