Probably not. Citroen is part of PSA (Peugeot) who are the second most profitable car manufacturer in Europe. I agree though, they do make very bland machinery.

Not likely with all the money they get from Ford.

I don't mind Volvo's really. C70 is pretty nice looking as a cruiser, and the S60 seems respectable enough for a 3/5 series rival.
