Sport mode is not spec dependant, it is engine dependant. If you have a 2.2HDi (either 136 or 173), a 2.0 16v petrol, 2.0 HPi petrol (Avoid!) or a 3.0 V6, then you will have the sport mode. 1.6 110, 2.0 90 & 110 and 2.0 136 engines do not have the sports mode, in any spec level.
And bear in mind that this is for the UK....

Pretty sure my mate's 2.0 136 Exclusive had H3+....

Pretty good description, Chris - H3+ also reduces body roll - in a 'normal' hydraulic Citroen body roll is enhanced becuase the fluid can flow from one sphere to the other. When the hydractive cuts the centre sphere out, it also isolates the left and right spheres from each other, thus reducing the ability to roll.
A family member has a 2.0HDi 138 Exclusive on an 07 plate and that is just the normal H3 - non sport model. I have never seen a 138 with it, if I had, I would probably own it :roll:


However, yes, that is UK spec/engines im talking about, I have no idea what they do abroad! :lol:
