Ladies and Gentlemen, Julian Marsh posted this article on Facebook, which I've translated via Google, and it appears a petition is underway to ask PSA to reconsider its decision to end Citroen's tradition of hydraulic suspension. - Click Here - |

At the risk of upsetting well, almost everyone......is it the end of the world? The system doesn't define Citroen. Monocoque construction, front wheel drive, the 2CV, the flat 4 of the GS/GSA, the Wankel birotor, low Cd/Cx use avant garde styling, being contrarian, not running with the herd - aren't these what define the brand? Engineering solutions. The current system - however good it is, could be bettered by a proper active suspension system as pioneered by Lotus in F1 way back - when the technology couldn't really cope. But with todays computing power & electronics surely this would be a better direction? S-Class Merc tech for the common man! Frankly isn't a 60 year old system a bit of a throw back? If its that great why wasn't it universally adopted? Mourn its passing. Keep its spirit alive - just find a 21st century solution. |

Citroen developed active suspension on the DS and put it into production in the Xantia Active, the world record holder in the "elk test" (sudden double avoidance). | ||

Frankly, if PSA have moved ahead with their product planning, signing a petition is a waste of time. Regards G |

Signed, but annoyed at the amount of personal info they want, like DOB. Why do they need to know that? It's just data mining. Anyway, I use the Chris Huhne method in these situations (lie like hell). If they really do drop hydraulics then they will lose me as a customer, a customer of over 20 years. |

Likewise, 'jackanory' doesn't come into it, but they will have your IP so it would be better to go to somewhere like say McDonalds and sit outside and use there free wifi |
