LOL. We took one of those Deux Chevaux tours around Paris a couple of years ago. They have an engine like a lawn mower.

The only way I can possibly explain Citroën to non car afficionados is "Imagine space aliens came to earth and saw us driving cars. Then they went home and decided to build things that looked and acted sort of like cars, but were full of alien technology inside".
I think this pretty much sums up Citroën (from Wikipedia): "Paul Magès, an employee of Citroën, with no formal training in engineering, secretly develops the concept of an oil and air suspension to combine a new level of softness with vehicle control and self-levelling." |

Didn’t get a look inside but this V12 Vantage sure did seem like a manual. What a perfect car.
