One of the European traits seems to be that they see their continent as the navel of the world. Apparently, this also includes the missionary self-image of wanting to demonstrate to the rest of the planet how to do it better...
Even the longest story comes to an end at some point. It is clear that the Citroën C3 Aircross already holds a family record. It is definitely the new car with the longest delivery time. That this record was ever beaten...
Some vehicles seem ageless. You don't see the years on them. Admittedly, the Citroën Xantia, yes it is female, since in France cars are generally female and not male, has become rare on the street....
