Goddess Or a Pile of Old Scrap

Read by awl on Monday 15th November 2004

The story of an ageing French car, the legendary Citroen DS 19, which falls in love with a young Englishman.

When Peter buys the car from Gordon, it's pretty much a decaying wreck parked up in a suburban street. Peter spends all his spare time repairing and refurbishing the car, much to his live-in girlfriend's chagrin.

However, when Peter out driving sees and falls in love with Chrissy, a bicycle-riding environmentalist, the car is more than a little upset.
