One for the C6 owners

[Trainman]

Mike,

Got to say this is a new one on me, and I've had 2 of them. It puzzled me that much that I went outside to look at mine and I have nothing on the A Pillars, either inside or out. to say I'm curious would be an understatement. Pictures would help

A quick way of telling if the engine is a 2.2 is that the car has a fixed spoiler, whereas the 2.7 has a speed sensitive spoiler. Unless of course it's a 3.0 petrol, in which case it's a rare beast indeed.

This picture show you both, the one in the foreground is a 2.7 whilst the one in the background is a 2.2

Hi there,

I echo trainmans sentiments, nothing of the sort on my C6, superloopy. Again, had to double check, even though I know the car inside out after 3 years!

Has to be a mod, methinks!

Owner's IQ?

Owner's IQ?

Agreed. I just can't see how one can reconcile these two things: a person going through the process of acquiring a C6 and then going onto the later process of sticking numbers on the side of it.

Was it sprayed orange, and the doors welded shut, per chance?

OY I resemble that remark

I'll sneak a piccy tomorrow .
Most strange, why would you number your car, maybe part of a fleet?

If It was on the wheelarches I could semi-understand it, something tyre pressures (like they do on vans) but they are 2.3bar. As for it being a fleet car, That's also something I've never heard of

Mini-cab number?

Mini-cab number?

I've not heard of one being used like that in the UK, I know of a couple in Ireland, but not here

Remember the one in Slough advertised on eBay that I looked and gave a damming report on about a year ago, that was an ex scab.

There is a C6 Taxi in Newcastle, ive seen it twice. They seem to like their Citroens up there, still have a lot of original shape C5 Taxis too.

[Trainman]

I've never seen anything like it, or in fact heard of it either, really strange! I did wonder if somebody was 'badging' it up. 3.7 instead of 2.7 (shrugs shoulders), it's got me really puzzled.

There just cheap stick on numbers available from halfrauds , it cheapens the car for me any added cheesy bling

[jgra1]

maybe it's in case he forgets which house he lives at..

or I can only think the car is part of a fleet as said before..

[addo]

Yes, I reckon some sort of fleet or group identification, possibly in a situation where it's easier to identify the cars from side-on (like being bumper-to-bumper for celebrity chauffering outside a posh event).

Or is the driver's nickname ET?
