Taken a few minutes after the last wash. Did visit the breakfast meet at Haynes beginning of the month (June '17) but I don't have a photo unfortunately (plus it'd picked up a fair bit of that horrid dust that we seem to get a lot of).

3 of my current frenchies

The Clio Williams 1 (Number 342) and the Sorrento Limited edition 205 got a refurb over the last year or so ..





Both your clio and 205 look like superb examples.
Thanks for the encouragement, they are pretty rare over here, most have been exported now to the uk or rallied here in Ireland.

Hi everyone, here's mine.







The seats in the 406 are not black, they are dark red but the picture does not show it.

The screen on the GS is because of the air colled engine, it needs to be on when temperature drops under 10°C.

The 3 cars are really differents. One is a classical city car made by Peugeot, the 406 is a very great GT, and the GS is a real Citroën which looks like nothing else (hydraulic suspension, flat four engine, 4 discs brakes...).

I also had a Renault clio baccara, very great car well equiped (AC, leather, CD player, wood inserts, alloy wheels...), and with a strong engine.

A nice threesome, all different weapons.
The GS is very underrated - great retro transport.

I have it a while, I notice more and more people commenting on it, they must be increasing in popularity again, they went through a dull patch for a few years !

I wanted one for a very long time in my early 20s, but couldn't make the numbers work.

Spent a long time looking for a nice valver, but ended up with a 106 GTI.

Well 106 GTI's are now getting very rare over here too (Ireland), I had a black one and a rallye years ago, great little cars and very capable. You need to get a picture up!

I've been piling on the miles on the DS5 of late (visiting family, friends + holiday). It's a fab car for munching the miles - very, very comfortable and smooth.

My standard answer with green cars is typically 'it's fine on a Lamborghini and not much else' but I do love the Alien Green these come in.
