@kdfrawg Citroëns in general are hard to forget once you've driven one or ridden in one. The hydropneumatic suspension is pure magic. Better than any Cadillac or Rolls-Royce for ride quality.

@kdfrawg Chapron made many different DS specials, but that's my favorite, especially the later ones with the faired-in swiveling headlamps.

@kdfrawg Yep. A DS21 Henri Chapron Cabriolet. Or Décapotable if you like.
