mexman123 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 Went on a car sales introduction course yesterday, at Rockingham Raceway, to preview, learn about and test drive the new Citroen DS3. Raced one round the track (150bhp Turbo) along with its competitors, BMW Mini Cooper S, Fiat 500 arbath, Alfa Mito,etc....Had a couple of goes on the skid pan with ESP system on, and then off. Great fun, you drive over a metal plate at 30mph and when the back wheels hit the sensor the plate shoots to the side, sending the car into a wild 360 spin. Also had a go as a passenger in a C4 Loeb rally car with a professional racing driver at the wheel, absolutely great fun....If you havn't yet seen the new Citroen DS3, have a look on the web, you can configure the car to what you want, with thousands of different options/permaetations, fantastic looking car and drove superbly, closely follwed by the Alfa, Mini, Fiat 500 in that order. Truly excellent (albeit plastic) car.... Sorry, i do work for Citroen by the way, but i am in o way biased!
stevie Posted February 4, 2010 Report Posted February 4, 2010 I always liked the quirky citroens (DS CX etc) and i have to admit the DS3 is a striking little car. I wouldnt say no
