Go to the Parkers price guide website and look at the review section, it will also give you a full rundown of the specs inc road tax bands/emissions etc.

Surprisingly, for such a big car, parking sensors are not standard on the VTR +.
Seems that some extras were purchased by the original owner, so the specs might not all be the same. Loads of stuff can be enabled, although some of it needs a diagbox. Some have cornering lights and DRL already enabled for instance.

Lovely car but mpg is poor. I think it's a lot heavier than the phase 1 C5's so you can't really expect economy. Hope it is a good one and you get a good deal.

The new shape C5 looks to have a more tapered rear end. Maybe that makes the load space smaller.

Gonna take you a week or so Robert, there's a lot of goodies to discover. There might be stuff to enable in vehicle perameters and lighting, and there will be stuff to enable with a diagbox session. Hope you get everything sussed soon.

Yes mate,press the rotating switch at the top left of the wheel centre,rotate it to select vehicle perameters, lighting, and it should be there to tick. If it's not visible along with get me home option, then you will need it enabled via a lexia session.
