There was a smaller chaos of scooterists at college, my GT was the fastest!
Late 60s were special times in my life, as for many.

Citroen didn’t always make long cars look so beautiful.

My dad and I found this one gently rusting in a car park in Brittany 10 years ago:

It's not Citroen's finest design! The estate looks ungainly IMO. I do like the regular shaped CX though.

In estate form it certainly makes me feel nostalgic: the headmaster at my school in 1980ish had one:
Officially it's a 7 seater, but he often squeezed 9 kids plus himself into that thing :lol:
