I'm sure Chris will be mortified when he learns of it, he is always so very careful with his cars and keeps on top of everything.daviemck2006 wrote:And to be fair, it is something that couldn't be predicted, other than the fact it is a car!!!!!CitroJim wrote:You were VERY unlucky Davie....daviemck2006 wrote:I've sussed that out after 2 months of ownership!

Re: Hello I am a newbie
I'm in no way saying anything against Chris. I know he looked after it, and this is just unlucky. It is an old car, and unfortunately old cars break.

Re: Hello I am a newbie
I am afraid I dont understand the question.
No idea. Dont think so. I could try to find out.
I did buy my car in Spain.
I will try to upload some pics later.
BTW its my second Activa V6 (third citroën) and the one I had before for 8 years died 5 km after quitting the garagist and was supossed to be in perfect working order.
Never thought actually of selling it, but if I had had that intention the potential buyer would have been logically mad at me.
S*** happens, this cars are unfortunately very old so its easy to oversee something.
After buying this one I noticed after only 350 km that it leaked oil...timing belt exchage +tons of other things are due right now.
No idea if the seller did dupe me (probably), I dont care.
I just will repair it. I am fairly happy I found a "new" one with tonnnns of flaws, but that still works.
