Citroen XM Forum

Hello everyone:

When not posting furiously here, I have another life as a contributor to http://www.driventowrite.com which is a site with a diverse approach to motoring and design. There´s a touch of "then" in some of the historical items and a touch of "now" in reviews of the Geneva motor show or a look at the Chinese car design. I though maybe you´d like a look. It´s not really a forum but you can post replies. If you have any comments, let me know.

Regards,

Richard

I saw a nice example of a Datsun 100A in use last summer. When speaking to the owner He was not aware it was Datsuns first car to be imported to the UK and how much damage it did to the British motor industry. Likewise the 240Z decimated British sports car sales in the UK and USA.

Thanks. I was surprised too when I looked into this. The 100A was analogous to the rats that carried bubonic plague: small, unnoticeable but eventually deadly. The 100A ought to be seen as an historic vehicle, as much as the 2CV or Beetle. But its essentially banality hides its significance. I hope you liked the site, by the way.
