The gray color of this 33 year old is the same as the state in which the Citroën CX Familiale is in the wrong place. No more love, no more excitement and now boring. Of course that is because of the layers of fabric and the colors that nature is gradually giving her.

  1. That Station / Familiale idd had a rude nice big trunk !!
