Friend of mine put about 80k on a 1.6 diesel, no bother at all.

I had two (both diesel) between 2001 and 2008, did a total of around 230K and I was never let down.

Plenty of them have been used as Taxi's for years round these parts, clocking up inter-stellar mileage..... so they can't be all that bad?! Quite a few of them Pet/Auto's as well.

While Cit's lack a reputation for durabilty the OP's experience could be down to abuse or neglect by a previous owner.
Plenty round here (we had, until recently, a well regarded Citroen dealer) seem to just go on and on. The one i had on loan for a couple of days was very nice to drive though it was beaten by a Berlingo as final choice for family transport.
