Citroen flat four forum

Post by scratcher »

Hi, the flat four forum seems to have been hijacked by a couple of spamming morons. I hope to be able to get through to someone on this site who has enough computer knowledge to stop them./

...I actually emailed Matt Smith a few days ago about this and offered to lend a hand - it's not nice to see a forum die. :(

No worries about being nosey Andrew! :)
Nope, we haven't got a G at the moment but they are great little cars and if the right one came up at the right money then a purchase could be in sight.

The last one that dad had was a 10,000 (yes 10,000!) mile GSA that was is quite simply stunning condition. Sold it to a nice chap for £3995 and he takes it to quite a few CCC rallies.

The Gs to me are like baby CXs in a way, just that you can throw them around a bit more and they have the noise! :D I'm certainly a fan. 8-)

Exactly how I feel too. Everything a Cx does in half the space and even
without DIRAVI a technically dense front subframe! I far prefer the original
Gs over the GSA so even a 10k miler, whilst appealing, won't really get
my head spinning! :lol:

Shame you're not near me Malcolm! It'd be nice to have someone who
knows G's to pass work to and you'd get to hear that fab engine rev
again!! :P

Yes I do love the GS over the GSA too BUT for me the mileage and the overall condition was quite breathtaking.

It had won the G Rally prize for best GS a couple of years ago and the condition was quite amazing.

It had been driven around gently by it's previous owner but with the noise of the engine just asking for it and the road being perfect (private of course!) it would've been rude not to open it up a bit so dad took it up to the big ton...the noise was lovely!!! 8-)

Have you got many Gs Andrew?

Can I ask why you prefer the GS over GSA? Is it a bit like the XM S1 quirkiness?

Thanks.

The fact that the rear roofline is cleaner and a purer sharper line on the Gs
as the later car got a bit boxy to accommodate the hinges for the tailgate
in the roof. This also altered the bootlid on the GS which is one thing I adore
about it's packaging. It went right down to the boot floor and the vertical lid
when opened complete with the stainless bumper is quite special! And that
superb huge box boot - it lost something having a conventional tailgate and
higher cross braced boot lip.

When driven, the 1222 on a 4 speeder feels more eager than the 5 speed
1300 likely down to the keener gearing and yes, probably the higher revs.

Then there's the dash; I have several early LHD and RHD 1222 cars and
whilst the GSA dash is quite something, the early cars feel like a baby
DS / SM. When the bigger plastic bumpers also sprouted out on the GSA
there was certainly progress made but the delicacy of the tactile and visual
pure Citroen style suffered a few degrees....

So. Purer lines, nicer dash and a more rewarding drive = Gs.

Yes, I love'em and have quite a few. :oops:

Andrew
