I got back from Paris last Friday, haven’t had chance to write a full post yet but I wanted to share the above photo. Apparently in Paris it is acceptable to Graffiti white vans. The owners don’t seem to mind, I saw several vans even more covered than the above example although they were in motion so I couldn’t get a good photo of them.
I guess its similar to the way that graffiti tends to end up on railway hoardings but not on houses. The fact that the van drivers don’t bother to clean the graffiti off no doubt leads to more being added. Its like there is a understanding that you can spray paint on commercial vehicles but obviously not on cars. I quite like it - it adds a bit of colour to the neighbourhood!

I’m thinking of doing this when I visit Paris later this month: a tour of Paris in an authentic Citroen 2CV. This is different to normal car hire in France, you get a driver and a guided tour of between 1hour - all day.
I’m guessing all of the drivers are native Parisians, who else could deal with traffic like this in a car which is basically a glorified tin can.
You can also take tours at night and they pick you up at your hotel. I’ll let you know how it goes!
