If anyone is interested, the ICCCR has been given a couple of pages in this weeks Autocar.
Good pics of the Museum. It's main feature is the history and future of Citroen. The Journalist bases his story around taking the last RHD C6 to the event as well.
I did wonder when this was going to feature. thought I might have missed it.

Ohhh, I remember chatting to him. It was a 3.0 V6 HDi which interests me greatly. 240 bhp, and cheaper road tax than post 55 plate 2.7 V6 HDis!

Well done Franklin. That's the one. I saw him walk past me at the ICCCR and recognized him right away. Hilton Holloway.
I'm rather intrigued too by the 3.0 V6 Robert. I really like the newer alloys. Clever getting a more powerful engine and much less tax out of it. I believe it is shared with the Jag XF...although Jag gave it it's own character.

Thanks Will for the link to the Autocar blog. Read some of the responses from people about the GM & PSA deal and how Citroens Hydraulic suspension might disappear. One person said that JCB use Hydractive 3+. Who knew!

I did, they have always used it on their Fastrack range, I think John Deere do as well.

I picked this up on Wednesday after being told about the feature. Nice to see our little Citroen gathering in a big magazine
When I was in France a few weeks back I picked up the Citroscope mag which had quite an extensive report on the event and lots of pictures. Fortunately the pictures are in English, shame about the text ...
