Does that say DTR Turbo, and automatic? In green with the hurricane body kit! Must be getting on for an exceptionally interesting BX with that combo, unique too perhaps.

I rather like this one too, as does Dad, which is handy really since it's his!
The devils fuel it may be, but it pisses all over my TD, or indeed any TD I've driven. It's a shame Citroen never made a TD auto, it's such a lovely relaxing thing to drive, and yet goes well when asked without all that soup stirring nonsense.

It's not the meat you ought to be worried about Dad, it's the fat they cook it in! That and you may have just eaten Shergar!

Nay nay first time this year and I stopped it from trotting out the door.Talking about trots Oh - umm - ah perhaps not.
The car seems to be settling down now. Needs a bloody good clean though, bloody weather.
Cheers.
