Citroën DS 21 Shooting Break

Let’s start the new year with modifying a design icon, shall we? As far as I know, nobody ever built a two-door wagon version of the Citroën DS. This is very unfortunate, because a shooting break of La Déesse would be more than awesome. Ever since seeing these fantastic automobiles in France as a young boy, I thought the roof line of the DS Break doesn’t really flow with the overall shape and lines of the car. Please, somebody with the funds and skills on hand, build this! Rest assured – it would certainly win a few prizes at a concours d’elegance in the future or fetch a high price at an auction.

Citroën BX Break Concept

The design of the Citroën BX is actually based on the Volvo Tundra Concept by Bertone. Volvo rejected the design and Bertone recycled it when developing the BX for Citroën. The BX is an interesting car, but a little bland. The image of a base level BX driving on a typical French alley inspired me to give the car a much cleaner and more futuristic look. Would’ve been cool if they had actually built it like that, wouldn’t it?

Citroen Ami 6 Break – C’est magique!

Oui messieurs! Yet another one of those magic (and rather weird) vehicles from Citroën. Nobody ever figured out what the French engineers might have been smoking back then. 😉

Citroën Ami 6 Break with caravan – C’est magique!

There are so many pictures of the Citroën Ami 6 and Ami 8 that inspire me. It’s basically the same idea every time, but the effect is still stunning. So, here comes another iteration of the theme I call “C’est magique”: the Ami 6 Break towing a period-correct caravan.

Citroën Ami 8 Break – c’est magique!

The Citroën advertisements of the 1970’s have been equally weird as the cars they developed back then. Check it out and enjoy the vivid retro colors. Oh, wait a second. Isn’t there something missing?
