I must say though that looking at pictures of DS's hurts sometimes. I love the design so much but cannot afford to get one

It really transcends the level of being "a car" in my eyes....Truly stunning

Quite agree Vince. You think that now but just wait until you get an opportunity to drive a good BVH (semi-auto) DS. "Truly stunning" is not an adequate superlative any longer...
Drive one in the dark with yellow "follow me" headlights on and it's on yet another level.
To think the DS was introduced in 1955 almost beggars belief today.
I may be treading on dangerous ground here but I'd say every Citroen since has been a backward step.. There was even a prototype DS Activa that used a pendulum for roll control...
Fit a DS with hydractive suspension, the BVH gearbox and a nice V6 and you have the ultimate car I think...
