Let’s imagine that we were in the early #80s and you are a successful top executive. As renting is still unheard off here and contingency and exchange rates are still a main issue in car prices you have the ok from your company for a nice new top segment generic brand car!
This picture might easily represent one’s doubt at the time!
Go for a modern but classic sedan with #rwd like the #peugeot505 or something completely different like the #citroencx ! Every time anyone asks me what’s special about the #cx I just show them the contenders in it’s time and they understand why I call it the #citroen spaceship!
Even tough the #citroen is #fwd , has #hidropneumatique suspension and an out off this world interior it has more in common with the #505 than you might think!
Apart from the obvious french origin, they were both launched in the #70s and lived on till the #90s , both had GTIs versions, both were lived on a few more years first only in some bodies and also being built far away from it’s origin, both had station wagon versions that were abundantly used as #workhorses from ambulances to pick-ups in all kinds of special versions and are both appreciated in less than obvious parts of the world!
So if you were that top executive, which one would you choose?
