Looks a bit too awesome you mean!

Handled fine, went on a few runs with the pistonheads guys and managed to keep up over the ~300 miles each time.

Speed bumps were an issue though...

Looks good but the suspension on an mx5 has really short arms and really short stroke. In essence, lowering it that much screws it up.

I don't like it?

God no... imagine if we all liked the same damn cars! :confused:

This would be a one picture topic for starters... one pic then everyone saying "I love that... ive got one too." ROFLOL

I just saw this over at the DS3 owners club, very nice!

Lovely DS3.

Is it wrong of me to be looking at DS5's recently and thinking 'do want'?.

I really like the DS3's, but the price is too steep personally.

Shame

Due for delivery on 01/03/13

Yep, I know it's a DS3.

But I've been looking at DS5's lately and liking what I see. Citroen is not a manufacturer I ever thought I would ordinarily purchase a vehicle from but they really have gathered pace and got their act together over the past couple of years. :cool:

Too much eco talk in the motors forum, have some decatted petrol turbo goodness

I'll join you with that one... except no decat for me!

This one is from a while ago. Only visual difference are TRD skirts and painted the rear spoiler the same as the body. Will get another up when I get the thing cleaned up!

While waiting for stuff to be sorted we had a sit in both the DS4 and the DS5. Liked both, but the DS4 having rear windows that don't go down made it a no go, but the DS5 was surprisingly good and a nice place to sit. How it drives I have no idea but the interior and build quality was very nice.

I was just saying the ds3 was cool, not that you thought it was a ds5

I see, misunderstood the context of your post.

You were a stone's throw away from my work

Had an oil leak checked out at dealer on Monday, car was dirty on the outside I guess so they washed it and told me after the fact. Apart from getting pressure washer spray inside the side windows which was annoying, they appear to have done a fine job I suppose.

I hope they didn't use a sponge and a drying blade.
