Pity that Citro?n couldn't maintain that sort of world-leading engineering. Apart from the variants on the ID/DS theme (eg Citro?n-Maserati) they haven't done anything as good in many years. They seem to be reduced to sticking tacky panels on the door panels and calling it stylish! The current DS-labelled models are just ordinary mini-boxes-on-wheels and not very good ones at that! I know 'cos we got rid of one recently. Anyway, after the rant: very nice pic Nathan. I think I would have preferred a bit more of the car though.
