Fabulous.
Citroen did make some really interesting cars - both in terms of styling and also their engineering.

One could see De Gaulle (or George Pompidou) in the shadow. Maybe not in Sweden, though.
 
1960's cars were still quite individual. Apart from the DS and the 2CV, there were the Renault 4, the Rover 2000, and the DAF that I remember immediately from my UK childhood. Once wind tunnel design became dominant, everything started to look the same.

This must be the most identifiable slice of the DS.

Yes, high-economy (post-war) designs, and also unique features like aluminium bodies, three-cylinder engines, then generalization of the unibody. Marriages and mergers.
