Summary
What does this car say about you?
Style. The car is full of light. It is a car for a driver who knows his cars and what he wants. The shape is a piece of French designer masterpiece. Art on wheels and a certain future classic.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Sylish. Every friend has said the interior design and light is unmatched. The car is so much for the money. It has done it's depreciation and already has forums and a cult following. In five moreyears this car will be climbing in value on the back of interest in the original citroen DS and SM.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
This car is a lounge on wheels. Think French Rolls Royce. The ride is exquisite. The range rover/jaguar sourced V6 is powerful and smooth. It is not a car for throwinh through bends but guiding through. In my opinion on the motorway it is unmatched. It soaks up every bump. Although it lacks the sporty handling of a BMW it makes up for this with its cossetting soothing ride. You adopt an entirely different driving style, guiding rather than driving the car. Even after huge distances you feel fresh.
What's it like to park?
Very easy thanks to parking sensors all round despite it's size.
