If they made them out of more decent materials perhaps they would not need to be recycled so often.
But apart from the grab handles the inside of the ds5 was ok, its a bit dark but hopefully there will be a beige option to brighten the interior up.

I didn't even know it was being recorded, nor did i see any of the media types who are usually there such as gerry and sean, or hugo duncan. Though some parts of the balmoral show are quite boring, watching them show off the cattle is sleep inducing. These were much better than cattle:

And this wasn't bad either:

I'm not sure about the DS5, need to see one in the flesh.
I saw that new French President get ferried about in one with his head out the sunroof in the rain (while Sarkosy was escorted away in a C6 to the guillotine...) and thought it looked a bit SUV-like compared to the elegant C6.

I've heard they've went all german on the DS5 suspension. whyyyyyyy?? Citroen were known for their soft suspension and Pug used to be known for comfortable suspension and great handling. Now they're just trying to copy audis and that.

They are trying to abandon hydropneumatic suspension, the c5 could be the last car to have it. But thats a mistake; its one of citroens best inventions, and far better than air suspension.
But rock hard suspension in a citroen isn't right, a citroen should be a soft comfortable car.
Its not as if PSA can't make a comfortable car with ordinary suspension, the 406 is one of the most comfortable smooth riding cars I've been and it just uses normal springs.
