I hope thats a company car! Who in the right mind would willingly buy a Citreon?
Its not a company car Andy & the build quality is superb.

My high earning brother in law has one for the caravan. I thought I was in a Merc at first. Very good car.

No problems to report yet, despite the warnings

I use a pushbike for work most days as it is actually 10 mins quicker door to door than the car. Plus it saves me petrol and the £3 a day parking fee.
It's getting me fitter too which is not a bad thing.

When not on the pushbike I am still using the Grand Cherokee I bought off Aussie Pete.

106K miles on it now and it needed lots of daft minor jobs sorting on it which have cost me a few hunderd quid but overall a very sound car and we are loving it!

In fact since fixing the leaky valve cover gasket it has used no oil at all.
The radiator has a minor leak held at bay with "radweld". I also had to fit a new water pump, tail lift struts, accessory belt, flasher relay, brake switch, etc and get the air con re-charged.
It sometimes has electrical problems due to bad connections on the fuse box but these seem to have settled down now. Touch wood.

Bought myself an M3 E46. Just couldn't resist

Has the smg (sequential manual gearbox) paddle shift, it's fully loaded and need I say very very quick

Oh I better watch out for those speed cameras.

Just got this today. Its MOT'd till Jan and Tax'd till the end of April. Has all the usual goodies too. Gave it a real good look over and gave a real hard haggle. I know the boy from School but not seen him since then. It does have a hole in the Sill and one of the head lamps has had the Lense smashed. There's also a few bubbles on the Bonnet. So I knocked him down from £1200 to..............................

£250!

Bit of fun for the Winter and if it fails its MOT I could scrap it and not loose much money!

This will be my daily once it is finished.
I got it for next to nothing but have had to replace engine, gearbox, rear brake drums, brake lines, suspension bushes, balljoints, rear springs, all shock absorbers, exhaust and various other parts
Luckily I had a low mile D21 as a donor vehicle for most parts and have been able to do all the work myself so should end up with a truck that drives like new for around 700 quid.
