Ditto but mine was a 2cv, I remember a long job down to the West Country, so took the 2cv and the Wife and made a weekend of it.

I used to deliver printing plates to companies in Norfolk and Suffolk. If it was a Friday or Saturday I would sometimes use the GS1220 and collect the wife, daughter and caravan for a weekend away at short notice.

Also found the GS with it's hydropneumatic suspension would carry about half a ton and stay level with the bonus that it cleaned the rear discs up nicely.

Dropping the Citroens into Low ride position when parked was a great way to stop a wheel clamp being fitted.

Yes, also drove mine with a rear wheel off to see if the TV ad was true.

Never tried that but more than once Drove miles on a flat tyre because the suspension kept the car balanced
and ride height equal.
Was always the burning rubber smell or other drivers pointing that got my attention

and as for my suzuki car 1000cc 3 cyclinders 12v still doing 81/82 mpg also free road tax,
