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

[Peter Dzwig]

Ciroën DS/ID - an amazing car and an incredible piece of engineering by any
standards. Pity that Citroën couldn't maintain that sort of world-leading
engineering. Apart from the variants on the ID/DS theme (eg Citroën-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.
