I hate to be the guy who pooh-poohs all the good ideas around here…but buying a 30 year old Citroen is sorta like buying a private jet. Its not intrinsically a bad idea…its just that the consequences are less than desirable. Sure, its nice to brag to your friends about your new toy, but maintenance […]
The Citroën CX is an oddball French sedan/fastback (don’t call it a hatchback because it has its own trunk in the back) “executive car” that combined a complex hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension with 4-cylinder powerplants to replace the venerable ID/DS in Citroen’s lineup. Find this 1982 Citroën CX Pallas offered for $2,500 in Richmond, CA via craigslist. […]
Happy New Year’s Eve to everyone out there in cyberspace, time for the annual “out with the old, and in with new” celebration that happens all around.

Today we are counting down the new year by featuring a few repeat offenders, cars that were for sale earlier this year, and are still for sale. The Citroen (Citroën) CX was a futuristic fastback/wagon built by the crazy Frenchmen at Citroen around the time the company was slowly succumbing to death by a thousand […]
The Citroen CX fastback/wagon was the last car designed by Citroën before it was taken over by Peugeot and subsequently turned into the French equivalent of watered down crepes. Today’s CX is the enigmatic wagon version painted a horrific shade of coral pink that looks like it came right out of the latest edition of […]
Every great automobile legacy consists of three parts or acts. The first part is called “The Pledge”. The automaker shows you something ordinary: a sedan, a coupe or a fastback.
