Stylish, Imposing and Fun !

I bought Jacqueline (as I call her) as my first car in February 2023, with the intention to use her as a daily driver about four times a week, and I wasn’t exactly sure how she would handle it as she is a classic car, but she completely suprised me ! She is incredibly comfortable and has excellent suspension and road adherence, after all, she is a Citroën. I was also blown away by her fuel economy, as big classics are usually gas guzzlers; but her ? She has excellent fuel economy, with me having to refuel her twice a month, however she does need high octane gasoline which isn’t at all cheap here in Italy, but like I said, I’m lucky to only have to fuel her two times a month ! She doesn’t have any rust, as she was always kept in a garage, but she did require some frequent fuel pump changes according to her first owner, but I haven’t had any problems with that yet. The controls around the steering wheel are very simple, which I appreciate a lot, as I have trouble using the usual “sticks” found on modern cars. Her design is incredibly stylish and sleek, and her grey paint is stunning. Overall I couldn’t ask for a better car, of course as all classics are she is a bit of a money taker, but much less than I expected. I certainly will never sell her !
