If it gives a rough idea of how many are about at the moment ebay has 700 C3s for sale with 9 being XTR models.

Well there are 6 on autotrader at the moment. It probably is a fairly rare car as it would have been an expensive buy when new for a small car, but seeing any XTR on the road is quite a rare sight.

Doesn't that have the 1.4HDI 16v 92bhp engine? The one that seems to have problems.

Thats the one Ben, possibly the most problematic of the HDi line up, unfortunately. Also used in the old Mini One D, i assume that suffers similar problems.

I well remember as a little lad my parents and siblings (family of 7) all piling into Dad's 'Dove Grey' A35 and wandering why the key would open the doors but not turn the ignition on.. then we noticed the real owner standing on the footpath watching us!!
