• Peugeot 307 CC (2003 - 2008) - 06 1.6 turbo boosting 7 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  Would the ECU system see the extra boost and increase the fueling, increasing the power. As you could do on the mechanical pumps and turbos of such as the 306 Pugs and ZX Citroens. Curious as the question was asked by a friend.
• What happens to scrap metal? 24 Sep 2008 (Forum)
  With the price of scrap metal being at an all time high I was just wondering what they really do with it? Do our new Mondeos, Citroens, BMW's come from the metal of a scrapped Mk2 golf or an old peugeot 205? With so many new vehicle manufactured daily how many have been manufactured from recycled metal? Cheers

  A friend of mine is moving to France next year & he wants to buy a Citroen Berlingo later this year. Does anybody know how he goes about buying one in France, registering & insuring it there whilst still a resident in England? He wants to use it here before he moves over there.
• Why Does the Motor Trade...... 10 Jan 2016 (Forum)
  Apparently if the belt goes prematurely I'll be in a strong position for 'goodwill' from Citroen!!!! Pointed out I’d had a belt let go on my Xantia and got diddly goodwill an no assistance whatsoever from Citroen UK vis a vis the dealership. Eventually got a grudging quote of "about £500".
• The origins of the DCT 13 Jun 2021 (Forum)
  And of course, the half track also proved crucial in WW2 with the US producing over 40,000 M2 and M3 halftracks using Adolfe's design under license. After the death of Andre Citroen in 1935, Adolfe left the company to do his own design work from his country house. It was during this period) that he came up with the dual clutch gearbox and fitted one to a Citroen Traction Avant.
• Citroen C1 - Misdescribed car sale 13 Mar 2015 (Forum)
  Hi All, After some advice about misdescribing of a vehicle I've purchased. The car (Citroen C1 VTR, £2900) was listed on ebay as having Air Con, but when I went to inspect the car I didn't check it was working (it was cold and it didn't even cross my mind to), but upon getting home it suddenly dawned on me that there isn't even a button on the dash for it and the car doesn't, in fact, have AC installed.
• 1.8L 16v P Reg Citroen Xantia for £60 26 Oct 2012 (Forum)
  It's apparently straight, some minor front end damage was fixed under 3rd party claim about a year ago, so hopefully that's up to scratch. Questions: 1) What other cars (Citroen or Peugeot) would provide a similar engine? I was told that the Pug 406 uses the same engine, what about the 405 or similar? 2) If it all becomes a bad idea once the car is delivered and inspected could I either use it for spares for my 2.0L 16v Xantia (L reg) at 70,000 miles or fit my whole 2.0 Litre engine and box and drive train if needed into this car and have a much newer car?

  A full page ad for a Pioneer 8-track stereo with long and medium wave radio. A mouthwatering group test of the Aston martin DBS V8, Citroen SM, Lamborghini Espada and the V12 E-type. Their conclusion was that you should make up your own mind. Having said that they rated the E-type (£3519) highly besides the overpriced Lamborghini (£9505).
