Citroën

I went out to run an errand at lunchtime and discovered a Citroën DS in the parking lot. This one is most likely a late 1970’s model. The Citroën DS was designed by an Italian sculptor and a French aeronautical engineer in the 1950’s.

  1. Growing up our neighbors had one. Its was terrible in the snow! The back wheel-well would clog up and freeze.

    • Interesting. I have no experience with the DS model. We Rented a couple of different Citroëns when we lived in Spain in the late ’90’s. I really liked the Citroën Xsara.

      • This was back in the late 70’s and also in Canada! I remember many mornings when he would be using a crowbar to loosen the ice build up. 😉

        • I can imagine. I used to get mud built-up between my fender and tire on my big road bike that would seize up my front wheel. I used a large screwdriver to pick the mud out from between the tire and the fender to free up the front wheel. It was a lot of work and a terrible mess.
