Full hi-res gallery celebrating 90 years of the French firm

Citroen has been celebrating its 90th anniversary throughout 2009 and to mark the occasion, Autocar has been through the archives to bring you pictures of some of its most memorable models.

The French firm has built some classic cars over the years, most notably the DS and 2CV, while it has also been responsible for some of the wackiest concepts seen at motor shows.

The firm also has a strong racing pedigree, most recently seen with Frenchman Sebastien Loeb’s domination of the World Rally Championship.

Pictures in the gallery include classic models and concepts, road and rally cars, and pictures from the firm’s own celebrations last weekend at the Ace Café in London.

Think they should have left the double chevron alone and kept it simple like the CX

Just seen this on youtube front page,bit of a tagent I know, but it made me smile.

I do like the back of the C6, the lights and the rear window- but the front i just wish it didnt remind me of the last gen C5 lol- the interior does have a lovely look to it - in particular the seats and the wood used on the side of inside of the doors- but the front, I think they could do more style wise with the double chevrons

I know they're thought of as yobs cars now but I had a Saxo VTR back in '97 when they first came out. I had many a happy memory in that car and how it flew round corners!
