    That's when the Citroen company started, a hundred years ago. Also explains the retro font.

    New year, new look for #C3WRC, new crews: all is set to tackle the new season, pass the 100 mark in WRC wins and fight for the world title. Stay focused on preparing #RallyMonteCarlo, guys. And see you in Gap very soon!

    The Citroen car company was founded in 1919 so they are celebrating their centenary this year.

    Why would they do that?! It’s a hideous enough car as it is before presenting it in gravel spec too.

    Yep, for sure André Citroen, the founder, would love to see a 6 times WDC driving one of his cars! Citroen was known as an innovator, clearly ahead of his time both in the industrial and in the commercial sides. He started manufacturing V shape gears (which inspired Citroen’s logo) before WW1 and during the war he built a highly efficient projectile factory, converting it to a car plant soon after the war end. In 1919 he was ready to launch the new car brand, which become immediately popular and France best selling manu during the 20’s and 30’s. Adding a WRC title to the brand 100 anniversary would be brilliant; fingers crossed!
