Beautiful shots of the most comfortable car in the world....


This story of Petrolicious is perfect to while away the time dreaming of comfortable road trips across France.

The Citroen's use of hydro-pneumatic suspension hardly needs any introduction here, but it did the the car ridiculously comfortable, and bathed in a perfect evening light in these photographs, it's certainly a very elegant car indeed.

In fact I think it's a beautiful car - the curves are wonderful and little touches like the concave rear window mean that Citroen could do without a rear windscreen wiper. Why make do when you can just design the thing in the right way to start with, right?

I urge to head over to Petrolicious to not only see these photos, but some other French classics, like this amazing article on the 2CV - "The Car that Frees You..."
