That was a good car!

Post by lexi »

The C5 estate facelift has gone. Was warned not to buy a 1.6HDI. I liked it. 54 mpg going up to highlands and back to Paisley regular. It went well too and had as much power as my 2.0 hdi models. If you can get one with no turbo issues it is a good engine with plenty cheap spares available. 1 years running and only a battery and 2 tyres...........plus a 3 quid injector washer. Sold for £100 more than paid last year. Only have my daughters 206 left in French cars.

That was an expensive washer! :rofl2:
