thats not pricey, Citroen want £650+vat+shipping! Now thats pricey, and they'll likely sting you for import tax if they can find one.

The story behind my valver

Post by Anonymous »

I have only had the car a few weeks, but the car has been coming to my garage for years. We have always been trying to get our hands on it since we first serviced it back in 1996 i believe it to be!
The more it came in to the garage and the more my no claims bonus went up i decided to ask the customer if he would do a deal but he said no i want to keep her. But then unfortunitly hes dad became ill and he needed the money to care for him, so one day out of the blue i had a phone call asking if i wanted first refusal-which obviousily i couldnt refuse. The low mileage is due to the fact that it was wrapped up in cotton wool in his garage. It has got a few bits and peices that need sorting out on the bodywork which i cant wait to get done but apart from that she is sound. I will try and get some pics on soon once i have figuered out how to use my new bloody digital camera.I hope soon to meet up with some of the cornish boys soon to show her off! sandy
