Madrid Auto Show: Citroen C-Buggy live shots!

Citroen C-BuggyAlberto, our compatriot over at Autoblog Spanish, snapped a bunch of shots of the Citroen C-Buggy concept car, an off-road interpretation of the Citroen C-Airplay. While obviously not destined for production, the C-Buggy could well provide a glimpse into design themes for Citroen's small cars.

In the absence of a windscreen (the black panel is opaque), the C-Buggy's driver will need a more robust set of eye protection than the sunglasses adorning the model. Perhaps the best feature of the car is the integration of the roll hoops into the rest of the body, which is even better-looking in person than it appeared in the pre-show press release. Another nice feature are the LED taillights modeled after the Citroen chevron badge.
