Something else I've noticed....
I reversed the car ('09 C5 2.0HDi Exclusive Tourer) onto the drive yesterday, and then sat there for a few minutes listening to something on the radio....engine running. I noticed the nose of the car start to rise, perhaps a couple of inches or so (or did the rear drop....?). Seems odd! Is it 'normal'?

Yes. They will occasionally adjust their height after standing a minute or two.

My old XM used to do that on occasions.

I think you could get extra points in the I-Spy book of cars if you spotted a Citroen actually going up and down.

Even if you were the one sitting in the car?
As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Re: Something else I've noticed....
Puddles, puddles, all in green,
Will getting this work only be a dream?
Language, language very blue,
Why do I hang on to you?
V6 engine, with a lovely rumble,
When I hear you I no longer grumble.
Hydractive suspension, with the cornering so flat,
When you work properly you startle hot hatch prat!
Great big grin, stretching so wide,
When all is well I love this ride.
