totally off topic, and i still dunno how i ended up on this page whilst browsing for a msdn topic... but have a look

http://www.bristolcars.co.uk/Blenheim3.htm

if you have the money to spare, would you buy a 60's styles car, one that's outright ugly, just because it's hand made?

the fighter or the speedster, ok, but the blenheim3? brrr... look at the dash... look at the trunk... hell, even a renault megane looks better :-)

Yeah!

Even the photo camera is a 60's model! What horrible promo pictures!

At 160.000£ each, i guess they could afford a decent website too :twisted:

Just the opposit: Dead people is usually inside rectangular boxes. Do yo see any rectangle in the DS design??

Current designs ot turisms of every firm are a imitation of that, which was the pioneer.

The DS was a revolution when it was released, and had many smart solutions. I think the DS looks good compared to other cars at that time.
But the other old citoens look ugly.

The DS was indeed a remarkable car. I used to like Citroen, up to the era they were taken over by Peugot.

I drove a GS quite a lot, I owned a BX and a CX. The CX is my favorite.

If I were to find a really good maintained CX (Pallas Athena anyone?) I would seriously consider purchasing it.

Anyone from Germany listening here ?
