Citroen selling stuff off.............

Ooh I like that Berlingo thingy.

...and the pristine BX GTi in gunmetal!

The National Railway Museum have recently 'de-acquisitioned' some locomotives recently - to much anger and disgust... The railway preservation press have printed many miles of comment on it...

All have ended up in other worthy places though... Mainly well-regarded preserved railways...

I'm surprised the Conserva-whatsit are getting rid of stuff but I guess they need to make room for new stuff...

One hopes the vehicles they are selling off will end up in other appropriate museums...

I did not (can't, unfortunately) watch the video but what's the general opinion/feeling on this?

Who fancies an Activa V6 with 1500km on the clock, like new?......form an orderly queue

[Stickyfinger]

Got two already thanks............

I wonder what so much "inactive time" has done to it.....

[demag]

So are these "new" cars, or "new-ish" cars? Were they ever released for sale?

[Stickyfinger]

All are Factory-2-Collection cars..........a couple are Historic I think and would of been collected at some point by Citroen (or donated)

Interesting around 2:00 you see someone at the back of an Activa changing the fuel pump. And the around 19:00 there are two mechanics fiddling around the engine bay on the same Activa. I almost died laughing! New Activa and already needs repairing...

If the video lasted longer I believe there would be even more mechanics around the Activa wondering: "What f***** up system is in this car! Must be a prototype..."

Anybody would think Microsoft released it

We all know that Citroens don't like sitting around unused, so it must be a bit of an issue there.
Not to memtion a backlog of service updates and mandatory mods!
What to call them? "New Old Stock" (Packaging may have been removed).

[xantos]

Agree with that. They are now probably doing "Leaky activa ram repair". The bushes are probably OK.

When I visited the Conservatoire last year, there were 2 Activa V6s on display, I think that was one of them. So at least it moved from the display area back to the warehouse.

The old factory there is about to redeveloped, so maybe they are losing storage space. But i don't see them selling off spare Peugeots.

. . . what the hell's this green stuff for?

[Eddie Nuff]

Video wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't in French - I mean, no consideration these Frogs

Agree that the Gunmetal BX looks very nice, so does the red and white Rallye BX. Pick for me would be the Traction

If he hadn't spent so much time back and forth fannying around he might have been able to actually reveal some of the cars that they do have - which is surely the point of the video.
