[Vwdiesel] Citroen

[William J Toensing]

Mr President, you are so lucky to live in a country where you can still buy a Citroen. I love Citroens & I still have 3 in my collection. They are a 1970 ID-19 sedan, 1972 DJX-21 station wagon (brake in the UK) which I bought new in 1972 fearing I would never again be able to buy a new Citroen when I heard Citroen was pulling out of the USA, & a 1979 CX Pallas diesel sedan "gray market" car which someone else went thru the hassle of importing into the USA & getting it to comply to our stupid regulations. In the early '80s the import regulations were tightened up to make it virtually impossible to import a car that was not made to U.S. specifications. If you want the details on this & how it happened I will tell you.
