That's odd with the 207 Davie... If it's just you that’s been driving it then you may have answered your own question ;)

Well, that's blown my theory on 107 oil consumption out if the window then...

No! You'll only regret it and you'd never find another like it at the price...

Now you know why yours was so cheap - no Satnav disks :lol:

Its the 205 Jim. That one above advertised at £4995! A 1.6 auto, essentially the same car as my 205, except a 5 door. Both one owner, mine done 33k, that one 28k. I only paid 700! And none can really be any more original, cleaner, or tidier than mine unless it hasnt been used at all.

Sorry Davie, I was confused but with you having bought two absolute gems and bargains recently it's understandable ;)

Precisely as I alluded to above Mickey...

Stops me ever wanting to sell any car other than on here... Hence I'm keeping hold of the Pug of Love...

I can't bear the stress and aggro of trying to sell it...

My problem is now i have 3 cars and only want two. I bought the 205 not expecting it to be so good as it is and expecting to use it for all the local trips around town, including the food deliveries, and the 407 is supposed to be the activa replacement, occasional use, only for enjoyment, and no deliveries. Now i find myself with the 205 in a lock up, the 407 doing everything but deliveries and the leon doing them. Its the delivery car i have the biggest need of being an auto! I may well tidy the leon and move it on, and look for another small auto. Im sure i could pick up a 206 or c3 or c2 full auto, not a sensodrive, for a few hundred for a bangeromics daily hack to not care about aka as the leon is just now

They definately do a c3 full auto, im not sure about c2. Pug did a full auto 206 so i would think early c3 auto were the same as the 206.
