BX and ZX arent real citroens.  Well a BX is sort of in terms of suspension, but its nothing special :)

If only i had a SM and/or a DS in the collection

Depends, the GS has a lot of other goodies, such as inboard disc brakes on the front axle.

Not sure about the revised GSA's I would say a GSA is boring but all GS's are cool :)

louis web site

http://www.2cv4x4.com/profile/

don't forget it cost alot to modify using xantia parts and if you want to see it struggle put it through water as the ground clearance has not increased by much.
xmob has probably seen louis and his mates a few times at langdale as thats were they go most of the time.louis takes his 2cv there in the back of a sprinter van

SM is even more collectable than a DS ;)

But Id settle on a DS for a bit of sunday driving.  (Saturday is L/Rover day)
