(adrian has subsequently redesigned the site.) the raison d`être of the citroën car club site was recruitment but while working on the site, i realised that i had such a wealth of material, that i might just as well create my own site. thus citroënët was born. originally it covered only one topic - a reprint of an article originally published in the citroënian about the fabled d sport. over the years, it has grown and expanded to nearly one thousand pages devoted to all aspects of the marque including details of citroën`s production cars, prototypes, concept and show vehicles, commercial cars, resources for the citroën fan such as book lists, calendars, e-mail lists, memorabilia, screensavers, articles, etc.. i currently drive an xm ct turbo vsx, the latest in a long line of citroëns. the company was founded in 1919 by andré citroën and the first cars went on sale that year. he employed mass production techniques for the first time in the european automotive industry and was also the first to set up a service agent network. if early models were not particularly unusual in terms of technology and styling, all this would change with the release in 1934 of the traction avant which set the pattern, some 50 years ahead of its time, for the modern motor car. no chassis, front wheel drive, aerodynamic coachwork, excellent handling and roadholding, attention paid to safety, etc. unfortunately, andré citroën died shortly after this car was launched. prior to the birth of the traction, citroën mastered the art of publicity with advertising campaigns the like of which had never been seen before - the eiffel tower illuminated with his name and the company logo, trans-continental journeys, the setting of endurance records, etc. the launch in 1949 of the 2 cv confounded the critics - here was a car which was so different from its contemporaries that it was doomed to fail. slow and ugly, it was the antithesis of the post war offerings of other manufacturers - and yet it was to have a production run that spanned five decades and generated enthusiasm bordering on the fanatical. the single most important event in automotive history (after the invention of the wheel and had it been thought necessary and possible to reinvent t...
