Glad to go Shoping

I was not looking forward to Shopping at Waitrose tonight but having done the rounds I came out in to the car park to only find a wonderful Citroen DS parked. This is my fave car of all time. Citroen at its quirky best. It looked just wonderful in the sunshine and made a perfect blip.

Styled by Italian sculptor and industrial designer Flaminio Bertoni and the French aeronautical engineer André Lefèbvre, the DS was known for its aerodynamic futuristic body design and innovative technology, including a hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension.

The DS advanced achievable standards in automobile ride quality, handling, and braking. Citroën sold nearly 1.5 million D-series during the model's 20-year production run. The DS came in third in the 1999 Car of the Century competition, recognizing the world's most influential auto designs, and was named the most beautiful car of all time by Classic & Sports Car magazine.
