    Back in the 60s a friend of mines dad came home with a Citreon on loan for the weekend. he was looking for a new car and I remember how strange it looked.They said you could get a flat tire and continue on 3 wheels. it had hydros or levelers and it was a wagon sort of we hoped his dad would buy it but his dad bought a Volvo p whatever sports car. We would cram in the back seats and his dad wore driving gloves you know the type Anyhow I will always remember that Citreon by the way I still see that gold volvo he drove hey werent citreons powered by massaratti for a number of years? the motor would collapse under the car so no damage it was the most safe car on the road for quite a few years Burt Reynolds drove a cool one in the longest yard it had hydros kind of for driving off pavement as Ive said before I love those 60s spaceship cars that I hated in the 60s Citreon was one of them

    P1800. Gorgeous cars. Fabulously sexy interior and exterior, dead-simple-hell-for-stout engines too. Even had an "Estate" version so we can talk about them here. :D

    That front-end looks like something a customizer like George Barris would design - just wacky weirdness.
