Never seen the attraction with these. Andy E will be along in a min to put me in my place (

) but I think they are one of the most hideous bits of shit ever to cross that all too narrow patch of water.

I had a series one Prestige back in '87, it was not too sad, until the gearbox pooed itself and I sent the coooont to China. A couple of mates had later turbo diesels and they were rather troublesome iirc. The main underlying problem being they were badly built with poor quality components, a bit like a Jag or a Rover but with even more to go wrong
Who cares, they are stunning and so much cooler than a cliched DS .

I hate spastic longbridge turds as much as the next bloke but in the crapness stakes Citroen are in a whole different league
