Thumbs up New Citroën C5 !

I didn't like the first one (too classical) which appeared in 2000 but the restyling (2005) is very nice... and costly for Citroën.

Very sleek. Strange headlights, but overall a very nice vehicle.

Fire whoever decided to do the headlights. The current C5 has nothing wrong with the styling

I don't agree with you Jim ! The current C5 is too too too classical, nothing sexy. My godfather has a C5 2.2 Hdi and it's a very good car, excellent handling and comfort, full loaded (GPS, leather), etc. But the styling is not worthy of the Citroën spirit of innovation. I must conceed that the SW is not bad.

This is the current C5 :

I've always thought of the C5 as one of the more "Citroen" Citroens of recent times Until the C3 came along of course

The C3 (unless its bad built quality ), the Pluriel, the C2, and the future C4 and C6 are real Citroën to me, really inovative and creative.

Yeah but these are all future Citroens (C3 excluded)

The C3 exists, the Pluriel just appeared recently, the C2 will be sold in a few weeks.
But the other are not currently in sale indeed

None will have the style of the fabulous Citroen DS! That was an extraordinary design and car! ( except when you had to fix it!, or even change the last spark plug, since the bonnet had to be removed...)

The DS is one of these fabulous carswhich cannot have a downward (un déscendant ? ) like some other cars. But the C6 seems to be very nice.

Citroën has done something that classic with the current C5, that it appears heavy to me. We're far from the fluent style of the Xantia. But this redesigned C5 is much better, and I do hope that it will look like this picture.

The new C5 looks more like a brand new model than a facelift, however- it looks FAR better. I never cared too much about the current model, especially the rear on the sedan looks boring, the estate rear on the other hand looks neat. The front and dash looks dull as well, so I'll be glad to see this one =)

That's was the last Citroën of the Jacques Calvet time. The previous CEO of PSA replaced by Jean-Martin Folz. And the current style of Citroën is going to becom much more exciting !
