Myself, ds3adi and Arlow had an awesome weekend away with DS3Spirit
A Weekend In Poissy & Paris With DS3Spirit
Citroen treats its customers and especially the owners of the DS line, which now form an exclusive club. They were invited to a weekend of your dreams
It's a weekend they will not forget anytime soon. Hundred and fifty special guests, great lovers of Citroen , and especially the DS line, were received on the Poissy site Friday night for a tour of the factory, before being greeted by Gaëlle Monteiller, the Site Director, Thierry Metroz, the director of Citroën style, and Frederic Banzet, CEO of the brand, for an evening full of surprises.
In confidentiality until September, the Citroën however did not hesitate to open its doors for the DS Days, an operation. To celebrate the success of models DS3, DS4 and DS5, already with 200,000 sales just two years.
After a visit to the studio dressing box, then a transition to the assembly hall, the fans ended the visit at a run by the racing workshop, specially dedicated to the DS3. The excited VIP did not hide their joy behind the scenes of making the car of their dreams.
Holland, Britain, Belgium, Pas de Calais, Haute-Marne, Oise and Yvelines course, the fans did not hesitate to hit the road for this unique opportunity.
"We closed our restaurant for the evening, and I can tell you it is very rare," say Agnes and Jean-Guy Paternotte, came from Noyon (Oise).
This pair of fifties swears by Citroën.
"The comfort is unmatched," said Jean-Guy, who admits to having been seduced by the concept number nine, the new premium sedan which will be officially presented at the Beijing Auto Show, April 23, and they had a glimpse through a movie broadcast advertising for the occasion. "It will not for now, but I can not wait to try it," says the restaurateur.
A little further on, the fans of the DS3 flock to the huge black box installed on a stage. Some possible to see the killer DS3 convertible that will not be presented to the public before school starts. "Frankly, it looks pretty good," says Amaury, a young 20 year old student whose parents come to offer a DS3. For most fans, including many members of the forum DS3 Spirit, a museum visit Citroën was held Saturday and, for fans of WRC rallies, laps in Citroen DS3 were held yesterday afternoon at the circuit Sougy , Orléans (Loiret). We'll drive the same car that Sebastien Loeb , "raved already two friends who came especially from Boulogne-sur-Mer (Pas-de-Calais).

Thank you to everyone here at DS3Club! I've had another great year with you. Some awesome days out. Again, made some great friends and got to know a few of you better and affirmed stronger friendships. Even with the abuse I get from Martin I still consider him one my my closet friends .....we just need to get the telepathy sorted.
HUGE thanks to Martin for all he has done for the club <3
He'll get upset if I don't mention him; Den.
We are nearly at 3000 members. We wouldn't keep climbing if it wasn't for each of you contributing the ever growing success of the site. Thank you for helping and making it a great place to be.
From posts about cats in wigs to helpful DS3 threads, we have pretty much everything covered!
Really looking forward to 2013.
I may have missed something out from the year but I have gone a bit doolally with the links/images/formatting. Will edit again when I can see straight
