CITROEN C5 PETROL AUTOMATIC

Post by C5petrol155 »

Hello everyone
I am looking to buy CITROEN C5 PETROL AUTOMATIC with hydractive/hydraulic suspension max 10-11years old .
I've decided to write here because I didn't find it for last 14 months in UK. #-o
I've got registration in 20 websites but I hope here I could meet the owner who will sell straight to me.
About the car and suspension I love. It has saved my life and the car was all right after I've jumped over the curb bridge on the road. The speed was approximately 100 M/h
Thank you for your help everybody!

You won’t find many petrol ones to be honest, they were the least popular at a time when diesel was still the most popular engines for the market here. Citroen dropped a lot of these going forward and consolidated a lot of the Diesel engines.

The diesels generally seem to be the desirable ones (depending on your outlook), but it will be a matter of just searching until one comes up.

David Hallworth's here although a 3L V6 might be a bit overambitious.

The HPI engine seems to be one to be avoided, I got a very nice leather interior for my diesel estate from one that had done very few miles then scrapped.
