[Leica] Nathan's PAD 29/9/2018: a classic car, not quite up to Shulman standards

[Douglas Barry]

I have been a Citroen owner in the past - mid 80s - and had a delightful GS1220 Club Estate or Break. It had adequate grunt for a small car, phenomenal handling, and its roadholding was superb in those tranquil days of lower police presence - thanks to them all being clustered up on the Irish border during the Troubles. Now they're all over the place with their fun spoiling hairdryers squashing drivers' joie de vivre. However, with Brexit coming up, combined with the arrogance and ignorance of certain power seeking UK politicians, we may have further unseen consequences in Northern Ireland, and maybe a side effect will be the ability to enjoy driving once again.

There were also DSuper, DSpecial, and D23.

Here’s a DSuper shot a couple of years ago.

And the next three.

That said I hate the way the owner has vandalised the originality of the car withe the lace effect on the windows - and the addition of the vee on the rear roof pillar. Bertoni must be rotating in his grave.
