• Retromobile (Parisian Classic Car Show) 6 Oct 2023 (Forum)

• DS the early years 28 Jul 2021 (Forum)
  Fair to say the Citroen DS is an icon of car design and it also probably wouldn't surprise many people to learn that such a complex car (for its time) had some teething problems. But after reading an article (Classic & Sports Car, June edition) on one of the oldest surviving DS's, I learned

• Remember these? 29 Apr 2020 (Forum)
  Just been watching the first London marathon of 1981 on the Beeb . Lots of interesting motors to be seen . Talbot Rancho , Citroen Ds safari estate, used as pace cars . Uncle plod in his Rover Sd1 and even a Bedford Tk “people carrier” . They don’t make ‘em like that any more !
• Any - Removing Window Tint Film 12 Mar 2020 (Forum)
  While working on the brakes I blundered into my DS wing mirror and broke it off. Crummy wee pot-metal ball joint mounting, perhaps made deliberately weak to avoid pedestrian injury, is proving tricky to fix in a way that’ll allow and hold adjustment, concentrating my mind on the fact

• Cupra Ateca 15 Jun 2019 (Forum)
  Saw my first 'Cupra' today, just looked like a Seat Ateca with a decidedly aftermarket looking badge (has a whiff of 'Transformers' about it!) and wheels. Not really sure what the point is?. Fords Vignale brand, i kind of get, because it is a more luxurious offshoot. Citroen's DS brand, i get

  Hi, I have a DS DS5 (not branded as Citroen) powered by a 2.0 BlueHDi 180 diesel with a 6 speed auto. It's a 65 plate with 17k on the clock. I got it three months ago and have put 3k on it. It does regular short journeys and as such doesn't get up to temperature. However it often gets

• Citroen DS5 - Wheels and brakes 19 Aug 2015 (Forum)
  the brakes on the DS superb and they do fill the wheel but assume the standard brakes also to be well up to the job. My question is do most manufacturers do this (I do see a lot of cars with big wheels and disproportionately small discs) and if so is it for cosmetic reasons.
