As said, an excellent Activa donor :lol:

Be interesting to see what you think of the handling. An awful lot seem to end up wrapped around lampposts...
Well done PSA make one car handle very well, and then fit the better engine in the car less able to make full use of it, :roll: other than for the purpose of restyling that beautiful design by accident.

So, at least the engine gets where it should have been, when the survival of the fittest happens when the car/engine sees the light/right engine bay.

OK, I'm off for a surf around ebay for a donor then. :wink: 8-)
ACTIVA

The car that looks like a family car, but has special secret hidden abilities.

It's arrived! :D

Picked it up today. Top notch seller, nice to know there are some honest and decent people still about.

It's beautiful. Unfortunately I've not driven it as it's not insured yet.

Just a very minor ding on the rear bumper where it meets the rear quarter panel and a faint scratch along the passenger door where someone has keyed it albeit lightly. I can actually live with them but will hopefully get sorted. The info screen has some dodgy pixels too but I've heard that can be fixed.

All in all, a heck of a price for a stunning car \:D/

Insurance must be a bit steep, espcially having an activa and v6 coupe.

Pictures are a must very soon Toby :D

I wonder if Activa suspension could be fitted to it..

I'll be waiting with high anticipation for your driving impressions of it, especially as you have an Activa...

I'll let you know Jim.

Only thing is I'm not convinced the Activa is quite right just yet. I considering it may be necessary to pull of the height correctors and roll corrector to give them a proper clean and then regrease them.
