Those wheels look a lot like mine, and are 'Hungaro'. This is what the correct hubcaps look like (but this site only has one available);

Don't know about the centre caps but I can give you the bad news about the towbar. Not only are there different bars for the saloon and the estate but they are different again for the facelift model.

The centre badge caps pictured are for the Suzuka wheels as fitted to the 2006 C5, I've just bought a pair from Ebay today for the one I'm sorting, they also fit some of the C4s,

Part numbers are 5421.21 for the Suzuka type and 5421.16 for the Hungaro type.

If you put the part numbers in the Ebay search box you will find more than by asking for Citroen wheel trims, I bought mine for £9.95 each including postage.

I had to replace some of mine, and I got them from my local scrapyard for £10 each.

I tried at my local breakers, one guy sleeping in a chair behind the counter another guy shouting from the sidelines "We don't sell that stuff any more we ain't got time."
