They were of a time when Citroen were still way ahead of anyone else in the industry. Not just platform engineers who stick different bumpers and badges on the same vehicle that everyone else uses too. The DS was, and still is, one of the best ride quality vehicles ever built. And it looks space age even now!

Oh how I miss them.... not! All of them had such potential, but the build quality was so horifically poor, they never stood a chance against Japanese imports that, well, just worked as they say in the advert!

A Citroen DS pulled alongside me in my local petrol station only yesterday, what a cracker. Pale blue with a white roof, not seen one for years.
Going back to the start of the thread, I had a Rover Sd1 V8S in "pendelican" a sort of creamy white, horrible car, always going wrong. I also had a Capri 2.8i and 2 Opel mantas, a tangerine orange SR hatchback and a red GTE coupe, lovely cars, all of them.
Tell you what I haven't seen for a long time, a Porsche 912/914 the VW based ones, really like them, different.
