As if I needed any more excuse to love Simon Baker in The Mentalist, in this week's episode he shows up driving a Citroen DS21. A powder blue one. How awesome is that?

(I have a soft spot for Citroens. The first family car I remember was a Citroen DS, which my car loving father babied for a number of years. And if anyone still imported them into Canada, I'd buy one like a shot.)

In celebration of the convergence of a favourite actor and a favourite car, pics!

The man:

How can you not love this guy?

The car:

And is not this one of the coolest cars ever?

He is quite gorgeous, but what else can you expect from an Aussie!! :) His wife, Rebecca Rigg, is a local girl from my home town.

I must say that car would suit him very well.

Looks like I'll have to see if The Mentalist is on over here.

Oh, my. He's just so darned adorable! And he's made the cover of this week's TV Guide looking quite snappy. (I think it was TV Guide! I deliver so many mags I'm wonky on titles.) I think the show is great. I watched him in a couple of his earlier movies and I prefer him now. He's got the role down pat.

I remember a few Citroens when my ex was a foreign car mechanic many moons ago. You don't see them very often except in big cities now. And on Top Gear.

Yay! More Mentalist people on my f'list. I so adore this show.

And yeah, the car is great. It reads as very European (to this American).

YAY! I didn't know you were watching "The Mentalist." I had hoped they were going to explain the car, but not so much :D Still, it was an awesome shot :D

Also, as a Simon Baker fan, you might want to check out my friend Alexandra's lovely picspam (http://alexandral.livejournal.com/219367.html) :D

Adorable guy (I love those square jaw guys like him) and a cool car- not only from the outside, they have a- well very inoque steering weel. My brother in law is a Citroen enthusiast and I drive a ZX since February and love it.
The DS21 has the nickname snow white coffin, it fits the car.

I've always thought Citroens were cool.
