How did the Maserati get into the line up there???
Thought it was a DSM rally, looks more like a Generaly Rally..

...and a Ford and Fiat!
Didn't take any pictures of the Ds as they're not of interest to me...!
The guy on the gate didn't seem to agree with me that my C4 was better than a DS either...!

Which DS Franklin? Modern DS Range, or the Proper DS?
A C4 is NO WHERE NEAR anywhere close to an original DS... Its streets ahead of the C4..

That Maserati, oh my, what a car
The interior is something else..
And the engine. A 90 degree V6 biturbo. Heavenly...

The original DS, Paul.
I can appreciate how advanced it was for the time and definitely see why people do like them, however they're not for me. We've had a couple, and don't get me wrong they are nice cars however I'd much rather have a CX, for example.
My comment of that was because he jokingly said "I bet your going to tell me this is a DS then!" when I pulled up. I replied that it's better than a DS and pointed to an AA Van that had just arrived to a broken down DS...
The goody bag was good, though, as there was a baseball cap in it. Perfect for wearing backwards when in the C4...

Well the chap on the gate...fag in mouth...questioned what engine my car had, thinking it was a 1.9 Xud... And was quite astonished to find it is a 2.1 TD, on a K!....very odd!!! it did flash through my mind..what would Paul say!
