Would have thought going by those dates it would be 3rd generation C5's ??
The first C5's & also the first Xantias were recalled for pretty much the same thing, they don't seen to be able to get handbrakes to hold right on the first attempt :?

I've noticed Citroen refer to the current C5 as the second generation quite a bit, but on their parts website the original with a face lift is C5II.
What is the correct term?
C5 III Tourer 2.0 HDi 163 Auto Exclusive
Gone cars.
C5 2.2 HDi Exclusive Estate auto 57. Awesome car. Sadly Could not be fixed by Citroen.
C5 1.6 HDi VTR Estate 56. Traded in.
C5 2.2 HDi SX Estate 02. Drowned in the floods of 09.
C3 1.4 HDi 92 SX 52.
Saxo 1.1 East Coast.
