Bob, I did e-mail you but it bounced back this morning!!!

I said:

read your post. It has to be said, rock bottom, quick cash deal would be at the moment £550 as I am getting little hints of interest form here and there... But whatever happens the car would need to be gone before the end of the month as I only extended insurance to 1st April.

Let me know via e-mail if you're interested, but I'll keep you informed should I get desperate and want shot at a lower price...

Sorry Phil. don't know how I came to give you that address :o It should have read bobhalliday@live.co.uk the one I gave is an old one but even got that wrong too! :lol:
I'll get looking at the finances closer as I am really interested and will get back to you as soon as I can.

Bob I was wondering why you had your estate disguised as a pizza over the weekend? :lol:

My daughter works at Bristol zoo and I take and fetch her Sat and Sun, each time I drove past there was a pizza box stuck on your car's windscreen 8-) :mrgreen:

Just to let anyone interested know, the radio is no decoded OK - works a treat - and the steering controls work fine.

The towbar is a genuine Citroen one, I hadn't noticed before.

There are also genuine Citroen rubber mats and the cluch cable - which was a bit sticky - is feeling a bit better now although I haven't lubricated it. It was replaced not that long ago.

I have just heard that the car had €474 spent on the rear suspension a couple of weeks ago when a leak from a rear sphere was detected. The Citroen mechanic seems to have stripped and rebuilt the whole rear! I rides well, I must say!
