I know the feeling. If I ever learn to drive, I want
a DS (an original

hydraulic suspsension :-().

My motorcycle mechanic has at least 3 DSes, 2 XMs and a Xantia, and a garage filled with
spare parts. At least one of the DSes and one of the XMs runs.
I drove a DS once, on a gravel road full of potholes in the south-west of France.
Absolutely amazing, it just floated along, one hardly felt the potholes...
OTOH on another holiday in France we were overtaken by one with a whole family in it. A
little while later there had been an accident, the DS that had passed us had collided with
a lorry. It had been literally flattened, it looked like it had been squashed with a
rolling-pin. Very tragic :-(
It would have been nice if they were still made, but with more crash-proof bodywork.
