Rarity of Citroen models

Post by Dieselman » Wed Nov 09, 2011 3:45 am

We all know the numbers of XM are in decline and CX too, GS are in double digits as are SM, but what about the iconic DS...10,799 on the road in the UK.

Seems extraordinary, but true. http://howmanyleft.co.uk/combined/citroen_ds

This is the problem Citroen are creating by calling the new models DS, it's diluting the brand.

Ahhh but Citroen are there to make the PSA shareholders money, and to do so they have to sell cars, finance etc, and the public wants all this novelty nonsense. The VAG Group propaganda machine has made everyone think that their large cars the only ones to buy, so joe public wants fairy lights on the front of his large saloon car, and so one and so forth! :roll: :roll:
