sneering load of aspirational bollocks

The word 'Pistonheads'.......

........means that they are a bunch of wankers in true Pistonheads style. Just look at them FFS.

 

The Citroen DS is, to my eyes, a fucking horrible looking thing. I am probably the only person in the world who thinks that. Sorry, the 18/22 is a much better looking vehicle but oddly, they don't have lefty weirdo Guardianista fawning all over them. Most odd.

I bet they ALL drive sensible saloons during the week, and then have an MX5 'for the weekend'. Sad, predictable wankers.

Their 'best car of all time' choice, is equally predictable.

When you say 18/22, Rev, I do hope you mean the wedge, not the Landcrab. I had two wedges, and I think they were on the verge of being a good car. Yes, they were hampered by their elderly engineering, but so was the DS and you hardly ever read a review that says so. I congratulate Citroen's styling department for being 20 years ahead of their time; the rest of the industry couldn't get near until the SD1, which was brave of Rover. Doesn't mean I'd buy a DS though. I save my blind fawning for Detroit...

Oh yes, I'm partial to a bit of Wedginess as are most here. With DS's, I'd suffer a very early single headlamp DS19 but the later ones with four lamps and that nasty plastic dash are just revolting. The CX (the original steel bumpered one) is a far more resolved design. A CX Prestige with buttoned leather for me please.

 

 

Regarding the Pistonheads pic, look at the shortarse in the middle with the spiky hair and the man bag. He so badly wants to be Richard Hammond.

I'd rather get stuck behind a small slow car on a country lane than a newish Merc or BMW which seems to happen with annoying regularity.

 

I mean, what is the point in spending 30k on a supercharged Mercedes and then driving at 45mph on a derestricted road? and then holding me up in my diesel automatic Peugeot. If you want to drive like that then just buy a Panda for goodness sake.

 

I once overtook this guy in a Saab convertible on an A road. He got so angry I thought his head was going to explode. If you want to drive at 50mph on a super straight wide A road on a sunny day it's fine but don't get angry if I want to overtake you. Maybe it was because I was in a dented diesel people carrier towing a caravan
