Wow, this exceeds the average level of craziness that I would expect,

Wow, imagine the thrill of owning your own beautiful Citroen!

Ooh! Ahh!


(OK, the Citroen engineers were great in setting up the hydraulically
controlled suspension, where you could press a button and change your
tire without a jack. But that's IT!)

Citroen DS19 first ever to have variable hydraulic suspension, full
aerodynamic design, uncoupled steering wheel, designed not to injure the
driver in a head on collision, fully reclinable seats, fully padded
interior, headlights that follow the steering, seat belts, rear stop
lights at eye level. It was a great car in the '60s way ahead of any
other passenger vehicle.
