Had a Citreon BX TZD Turbo Estate many years ago as a company car, it was nicknamed the flying coffin being metallic grey and the most angular car I've ever had the misfortune to drive.

Handled like a bag of nails, so much body roll it was unbelievable, gear stick like a knife switch with about 3 feet of travel from gear to gear, seats that seemed to move up and down but that was your lot, and the ultimate quirk being the handbrake on the front wheels.

Saying that I did a 3000 mile round trip to Italy, via France, Monte Carlo followed the San Remo rally around Italy and back again without any problems, got through a set of tyres on that trip though with all the rolling around, felt like Regan and Carter in their Granada screeching going on
