A few of us on here like a little French car

My mate had one of them Den in a gold colour. He was a loon in it, in fact he was a loon whatever he rides or drives.

Love that, Mark...as I recall, Brendan (EnFuego owner) was also a loon. Wonder what's causal? If I recall correctly, he was the only one in my friend group who had a turbo...I was driving a 1972 Chevy Monte Carlo with a 402, so a turbo wasn't needed...

Was he having Injun trouble?

Nah. He just kept rolling along

Tbh Den, all I remember it was a Fuego and at a guess as we were all paupers it would've been the cheapest version.
That Chevy must of been a bit of a beast.

It was...could literally watch the fuel tank drain itself in real time. Good thing gas was under a USD then...!

I remember those days and fuel even cheaper being in Jeddah Saudi Arabia and tearing along the Corniche in Trans Am 6.6's
Cadillacs and Chrysler New Yorkers Fun times indeed.

Wow! That DS cabriolet is sublime. Is that John Lennon's Rolls-Royce in the background?

 

[Hurricane52]

It’s a replica Lennon RR, but very well done.

The DS was incredible in that bold colour - almost orange - and would grace any collection or better still used as a daily, if you lived somewhere warm.

Love the creamy one with the twin arched windscreen
Citroen?

I visited this collection in Malaga last summer, not expecting much. It is brilliant. Combines some amazing cars with fashion. If I recall there was a whole section on hats! Something for the ladies!

Far too much old French stuff on here for my liking and because I don’t post on here often I going to add a little French hot hatch that often gets overlooked. Silly money when new at 24k and some probably never liked the boy racer colours but I always thought it looked ace with it real carbon fibre body and interior bits, 18 inch wheels and body hugging sports seats plus it was a fun drive. Very rare back in the day with about 124 made but a lot of fun these days for about 5 to 7k. Citroen DS Racing.

Looks like good fun to peddle, but also like one of our kids has been let loose with a highlighter pen.

That Tron Lamborghini has a lot to answer for.

Judging by how many are for sale in Euroland. I would say that 124 number was probably what came over here. The boys 90bhp ds3 is fun. 207bhp is bonkers.

I think they earmarked 155 I believe and there are around 121 left. At 24k in 2011 that was a lot but I cannot help think at current value it’s a great little hot hatch for the money. The Clio RS was brilliant but looks a tad boring next to this for me.
