Pah! Someone who really understood classic cars would have bought a Ford Escort for twice as much and then bragged what a bargain he'd got. :lol: :roll:

Am I showing my envy too much?

The CX was the next best thing, I ran them for about 10 years but not the same ride as the DS.

I want to sweet talk someone to give me a run in a ds. A well sorted one just so that I can say I have experienced one. That's a lovely one, I like the colour

I saw her a couple of years ago, I really liked her then too... The colour really does suit her.

I hope you were given proof of the low mileage since the clocks only display 5 digits, ie it could be 135,000.

I was offered her a few years ago but I wasn't in the market for one at the time and later bought a DS21.

Enjoy her and hope to see you at Little Horwood in her at the D rally 10th to 12 June.
