Looks great but will it fall apart?

Is that the thing they showed driving around London on TG?

[Mr Gear]

It is on PHs. I'm fairly sure they test drove one at Goodwood this year. Correct me if I am wrong, or someone post a link if I am right!

EDIT: I was right- http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyI...

Yup....that's where I found it. Came up on TG Twitter today. Had a look on PH but couldn't find anything.

It has been on Pistonheads. Its even been posted in the "Supercars spotted..." thread. Probably more than a year ago.

But none of the TG guys teasing the little Arab rich kids!

I was referring to this particular article. Should have been more specific....damn.....

yeah, but its a stroen, so after about 1500 miles it will creak and vibrate like mad, be expensive to service and get parts for, and shortly after you have bought one, they will do a vtr+ version

Or sit way up on it's broken pneumatic suspension after 3 years?

[Garlick]

We'll leave that to the Top Gear fellows.....

Yes I'm sure the extended family of the Qutari Royal Family are worried by a couple of mediocre motoring 'journalists' turning up in a concept car.

I guess they're all comfortable in the fact that they have access to a pool of money that could comfortably acquire Citroen Cars rather than just a Citroen car.

[beanbag]

I found it mildly amusing....ah well. PH is a tough crowd!

[louiebaby]

It's gotta be fun to do this. Like turning up where all the kids go to race their Corsas and Saxos on a Saturday night, in a Ferrari, driving slowly...

I see the humour...

[Kitchski]

You didn't search very hard!

+1, people like this get on my tits. Just because its french, doesnt mean its st! There are some very good Citroens and Peugeots out there now. Stop thinking the only French marque who can produce a decent car are Renault, because it just aint true.

I might have inadvertantly done that a few days ago at the local McD's!

[AJS-]

And your profile says you have a BX. Can you hand on heart say you never had problems with the pneumatic suspension?

Not French bashing at all, just that BXs are notorious for their suspension problems.

[soad]

Reckon it looks half decent. Me likey.

Good rear visibility?
Useful mirrors?
