Well, that's certainly a 'different' CX

Unread post by andmcit »

:shock: The things you find when Googling Cit stuff:

Image

And yes, ther LHM reservoir float is just visible in the top right corner
of the engine bay!

A petrol 2.5 turbo LPG/estate! Be a bit of a sh!t repairing a leaky octopus or
routing a new handbrake cable on the nearside...
Tiny upgrade

In the engine bay, a 2.5ltr intercooled turbo engine and... a small petrol tank. Main fuel is LPG, dual tank mounted under the car where originally the petrol tank would have been.
This will become a CX 25 GTi Turbo 2 bi-fuel Familiale Exclusive with custom programmable fuel (petol/lpg) injection system.


Surely writing notes on the car is a bit extreme - a piece of paper under
the wiper should suffice.

A GTi Turbo2 Estate would be fantastic actually. I do recall one with saloon
sawtooth black'n white converted seats at Roger's a few years back.

...not sure if it's the same one Andrew, but I know that Roger had an ex-WHM CX Turbo 2 Safari that was running Maikonics!!! :D
