My car is EJVcR

Why are you selling them now?

"Paint videos" - damned predictive text.

I now urgently need to generate funds to get another transporter trailer PLUS I now
HAVE to clear half of a barnsworth of mothballed old Citroens against my wishes.

Hi Will,

I'm not in a position to break cars as I don't have the space or the time now and must see them go to new homes
or take them myself to be scrapped should I get a trailer or worse get someone in to hi-ab them away probably
with me out of pocket so the worst of everything - losing the cars, not seeing a £ return AND having to fork out.

With an MOT (even with a fail certificate if it was modest list of jobs/fixes), these would be more saleable/valuable
and certainly being listed at a far higher value than their scap value which is why I'd want to see them either go
onto the road again or do some worth to keep other s1's going. In fact, s1's aren't in bountiful supply now and the
constant supply on ebay has all but dried up which is why I can't believe nobody fancies an early s1 petrol sans cat
as a second car - even as acuriosity/plaything. Thery're not that horrendous on fuel even for diesel men!

TBH, these look like they're all going to be weighed in. So far, Paul has shown an interest in the maroon SD, a query
has been made about the V6 and one of the maroon cars for Will. That leaves an awful lot of cars which have good
struts, some leather interiors and in many cases are running going concerns.

Andrew,
Could you send over some details of the two CXs I mentioned on the FCF PM - the GTi Auto, and the S1 GTi Manual.

Thanks.

Yes, will do but it's going to take a while deciphering the notes i've taken to send you with pictures I've taken.

Ok, Thanks Andrew.

Andrew,

I would love to take a couple off your hands, but the bloody sea is in the way.

2.0 8V N/A Xms are excellent, I can vouch for their reliablity, simplicity, and good ratio of performance and fuel economy.

I'll confirm the paint codes asap - I've made a note of the RP numbers on them all and there's some very low numbers!!
Where do you guys find the Citroen database info from inputting the RP or chassis number that I've seen list the car's
spec - Service Citroen?

The pressure is now on to raise funds now. I've accepted a loan from my father to buy a £1k plus replacement trailer
and will have to be seen to raising funds now asap - means I can get cars to people now if they want them...

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

The spec lists on Service Citroen don't show colours unfortunately, but go into detailed information about the type of wheels it has, the type of seating material used, if it has abs etc etc. You input the Vin ~ and its on characteristics on the left hand side I believe. I have mine in French so I'm not sure about the English version.

How much to N. Ireland??

Pay me the fuel and crossing (both ways although one way is tempting to get away from all the grief and hassles...)

gawd, shows too my mind is fragmenting - how many times do I need to type the word "now"
