Just looking at a french news site and saw this http://www.english.rfi.fr/economy/20120 ... job-losses" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I think people are aware of it but more details here. To be fair these things tend to be strongly resisted in France but with the world economy as it is it may mostly go through. Seems a lot of losses in R&D so maybe less stylish cars in future ?

If less stylish cars mean we get spacious Citroens again, then I dont mind

Re: Peugeot Citroën job losses in France
Now that would be a great idea, and then we could ask them to do an Activa V6.CitroJim wrote:They could do worse... A lot worse...jacksun1987 wrote:i hope they relurnch the xantia. I may be wrog in saying this. But prob the best and last of the old Citroëns
Although this time it might be powered by a 3.0V6 HDI Twin Turbo, as well as the petrol option!
ACTIVA

Its like the pug 406. I think thats a well nice car as well. If you had the looks of the later 406s the interier of them but Hydrolic syspension and a hatch back boot from the xantia. It would be perfect

That's an interesting news site! I didn't know Renault were nationalised due to Nazi collaboration!

Oh yes! Unlike Citroen who spent the war developing what would become the 2CV in absolute secrecy. Hence why they found the prototypes hidden in wall voids and so on so the Hun wouldn't find them.Xac wrote: I didn't know Renault were nationalised due to Nazi collaboration!
