DS3-R stickers

[yannickvanhex]

As you may have seen I recently applied the side stickers from the DS3-R . On the side , above DS3 , is written : 5.0 ..
Does anyone know what this means? Something to do with tje racing pedigree perhaps?

Thanks in advance

5 times world champion in WRC maybe?

[SiM22]

I think Fabian may be right

[Bigfeet]

Nope because Citroen have won it six times now!

[yannickvanhex]

Perhaps that was after they made the design

[Bigfeet]

True but the graphic wasn't signed off by Citroen Paris until 2nd week of September and Loeb already have the championship in the bag by then and even before Wales.

Crap I want to know because people have already asked me what it meant and it's not cool if I can't even tell them why

DS3 Racing 5.0

Does anyone know what the 5.0 means?

[WTF]

Does anyone know what the 5.0 means?

Not the 5.0

Not sure if it is any links to the A55 link that is on some designs:
Project A55. It’s a name that won’t mean anything to anyone, except those who were working in Citroën’s design department in the mid-noughties. However, this was the nub – the first spark from the mind of Citroën Design Director, Jean-Pierre Ploué, of what would eventually become the DS3. Initially, it was dubbed simply to be an upmarket replacement for the C2 and C3… but even in 2005, Ploué had already set his sights on reinventing the DS name.

Over the next five years, Frédéric Soubirou – designer of the DS3 – set about the task of creating a new supermini with touches of its namesake’s heritage and style. The floating roofline was brought back, with a separate colour to the body harking back to the DS of old. The ‘shark fin’ was added to accentuate this feature, and the sloping back of the original DS was reversed to create a stylish and aerodynamic front


When I've made stickers for the shop I've dropped the 5.0 becuase I don't like making something I don't know the meaning of!
