Re: DS5
Weird!
Works in Opera and when pasted directly into the navbar but doesn't show up on the standard official Citroen website - DS5 doesn't exist yet on there?

Re: DS5
The word censor was messing up the URL by correcting Citroen
I've fixed it by replacing the URL with a tiny url link.
DS5 looks like a Focus that has fallen on it's roof.

Re: DS5
I bought this weeks AutoCar as it has a drive of the DS5 in it. I started reading it but lost interest when it said its based on a stretched version of the C4 platform ... no hydropneumatic suspension! I didn't think it would have mind, I would actually be surprised if the next C5 has it, I can see Citroen dropping it very very soon. Its already started to dissapear.
I quite like the look of the front view but the side and rear profile don't sit well with me at the moment.
It took me a while to warm to the DS4 but I quite like that now, some very nice options on that, I do like the watch strap leather seats.

Honestly, a silly choice of buzzword for some interior detail. PSA are trying to have it both ways; this is a car with zero relevance to the Dee other than cravenly borrowing a name - yet they feel this is sufficiently relevant to sales prospects?Don't you think it's unfair that one hole in your watch strap gets all the action?
The Dee was about space, lightness, vision, supple ride. This thing is just a fitted sock with a motor.

Re: DS5
I notice the AutoCar test comments that the ride quality could be better ... a huge dissapointment, bi Citroens should ride well. For a motoring mag to comment on a poor ride, it must be bad!

Re: DS5
Im not sure on dimensions, its based on a stretched C4 chassis so it will be getting on for C5 size I would think.
I think the DS branding is a bit of a con, I can see why Citroen would create an up-market sideline though.

apart from the conventional suspension, maybe something to do with the current vogue for large wheels and low profile tyres
