I envy you.

Firstly I envy your opportunity. You are a lot closer, physically, to Citroens in general. They never got a lot of play here in the States.

Secondly I envy your resources. The wallet must be willing when stepping up to Citroen ownership, with the exception of the Dyane and 2CV. Citroens aren't simple. They're French to the Frenth degree, a quality where design meets engineering in such a way that both stagger away from the experience wincing but happy.

Thirdly I envy your confidence. A 2CV I could work on, it being essentially a four-seat riding mower with a higher top speed. A Dyane is pretty much a 2CV with weirder bodywork. A Cx? No. So I will stand back and watch from the sidelines. I have no advice to offer at all. None.
