• Citroen C4 Picasso 5-st (2007 - ) - Quick review (well, rant) 28 Mar 2009 (Forum)
  the car won't lock. Opened and slammed the window shut and bingo car now locks. I've complained on here about the economy mode on our C4-well, they've fixed that on the Picasso, it does what you want it to - you can listen to the radio, the interior lights stay on and the courtesy headlamps work when

  doors. There were lots of little cubbies to put things in - though most of them were indeed little. The car was well equipped. There was a CD/radio - not that I tried either - having no interest in French radio, and not carrying CDs with me when I go on holiday (does anyone?). There was air

  volume, cruise control/limiter, radio station etc. I like the reverse gear parking aid in such a large car too. It's not that easy to gauge width when turning left tightly but I'll adapt I hope. 1st 200 miles at 45 mpg in mixed driving which I hope will improve further.

  was Dartford - , I got over the bridge without problem but then spent the best part of an hour stuck in the mess of roadworks at the M25 / A2 Junction 2. I had plenty of time to listen to the radio traffic reports and luckily picked up on yet another accident on the M23 southbound that blocked two lanes
• Corsa to sell - effort to put in 27 Apr 2007 (Forum)
  expecting it to be 1-1.5k but at the prices that are being asked would it be worth: 1. getting ding fixed 2. getting bonnet damage sorted. 3. change radio back to standard and sell CD unit on E-bay 4. Re-paint the wheel trims (or replace if this does not work) 5. Establishing exactly what model it is - I
• Worn brakes on car just bought 22 Apr 2007 (Forum)

• Cars you have adored despite problems 6 Dec 2005 (Forum)
  I remember fondly the Citroen GSA I had when I was about 19. It was a milk chocolate brown colour and was quite startling to own because of its quirkiness. The radio was where the hand brake should be and the handbrake was like a spade handle that you pulled out of the dash. There were no stalks

  Hi folks, Just bought a Pug 406 Executive (2.0i petrol), lovely drive (esp. when compared to the previous N/96 Clio 1.9D). Now, the stereo... Sounds fine, looks good, CD multichanger in the boot, tape & radio in the front. But, I've always had a minidisc player in the Clio, and have about 60

  bent upwards - as if its been drilled then something jammed in it and levered to bend it upwards. Im counting my blessings that the car was still there for me to find, and that nothing was nicked from within. I can only assume they/he was disturbed as the radio face off was still in the glove box
• Motoring in the cheap lane. 16 Jan 2003 (Forum)
  and (premature?) clutch. Admittedly the radio's on the blink and the air conditioning........OK, so it hasn't got air conditioning. I know I'll be told that low annual mileage is bad for a car but it starts, runs and cruises at 70 without a problem and is rust free. It's got an auto. choke - which is a shame
• Pug 306 1.8 XU7 emissions control? 12 Oct 2002 (Forum)
  also did all the servicing, to request the radio code (previous owner now unfortunately deceased), prompted the service manager to recall the reg no from memory, and also that the car has no 'history'. It did, however, fail it's emissions test earlier this year, but passed easily when retested
