All Things V6...

[DHallworth]

Well that's the C6 finished... It passed it's MOT today with flying colours, not even an advisory!

I've taxed it this afternoon, and have taken it for a run to put some Diesel in it. One problem I found is that the fuel pump cuts off all the time for some reason which makes putting fuel in it a very slow and laborious process. It certainly does drive very well indeed.

Excellent result David

I had a car like that once, a very slow and frustrating filler... Can't think which it was now...

Was that why the airbags went off? Ex-owner got so niggled filling it up one day he gave it a swift kick of frustration and set the airbags off?

Your old Reddy-bluey XM did and still does that.

Which reminds me, I really should wake the old girl up.

You should...

I'll be doing a two-for-one offer on cambox resealing soon

Haven't you got that the wrong way round shouldn't it be one for the price of two

Well the tracking was checked on the car yesterday. It never pulled to the side and always went in a straight line but the steering wheel wasn't centred which really irked me when I drove it.

It was checked and reset locally yesterday and it has transformed the car. It feels like a different car in fact. They confirmed whilst they looked at it that everything under there is straight as well. So that's 3 people who have checked everything over under it now and confirmed that nothing is damaged underneath.

So... that draws this project to and end and I've got a cracking C6 out of it! Need to find something else to keep me amused now!

Put a V6 into it

Put a V6 into it

He doesn't need any ideas......... nor does it need a V8 or V12 or possibilities he has already considered.......

I agree...

Steve visited from Preston in his C6 today... It was interesting to ride in the 2.2 and 2.7 one after the other, it's amazing how much of a difference there is between the two cars! The suspension setup on them is totally different and the difference is notable even after a few yards!



My C6's wheels were dropped off this afternoon to be refurbished.

They're getting blasted, powder coated and baked in the oven. I'll have them back tomorrow evening In the meantime, it's a *proper* floating Citroen...



Can't wait to see them!

What a long day,left Preston this morning at 5:45am, called at Lancaster to pick up Mark (MDS131) we arrived at David's about 9:30, spent the day running round doing various things, thoroughly enjoying ourselves 'Citroening'

We left about 5:45pm and I arrived home about 9:30 after dropping Mark off and a run to the chippy.....
