French Car Forum

Just checking in for the first time. I have a 8 seat Citroen Spacetourer on order, hopefully for delivery before November but there is apparently a long wait. My current cars are a Skoda Superb, a Fiat Doblo and a Caterham. This will be my first French car. Greetings to all.

Hello all, first Citroen bought as a second car, seriously impressed, after using my new 06 C5 VTR estate over the passed few days my 17 plate Honda seems like an old bone shaker ...... I loved the Honda ride before I got the Citroen, many questions to ask no doubt, thanks from snowy Norfolk, Stu

Hi all. Simon, 42, married, kids etc etc...recently converted to French Car ownership and never looking back now. Had a Ford focus until just over two years ago when I leased a brand new 208 for a couple of years. Lease ended and needed a car in a hurry...and the little 206 came up. £250 and it was mine, went straight through its mot and is good...

We have a 2007 Peugeot 307 1.6 16v Sport.

I'm retired but still keeping active. I belong to several forums which keeps me out of trouble through being bored.

Hi

Well, I had my head turned. After years and years of owning Audi's (though I still own three classics), I saw my C5 hdi for sale on FB up for more money than I had. :cry: Then it became a 'need gone' and price was dropped by just under half and into my price range. Went to view and finally I have found a car as comfortable and smooth as my old A6...

Hi new on here for my sins I have Berlingo m49 and its not been a good relationship so far. To be fair to the van its done 170k and I bought it very cheap knowing it needed work doing but so far you fix one thing and its replaces it with a new fault.

Hi

The Laguna is my daily driver, I tried a Mk2 but hated it, and went back to the Mk1 (much to the disgust of the other half). I love the car, it has been everywhere with me, and through...

Hi Folks,
A quick hello, with an intro and some background.

I live in Ireland, just north of Dublin in a town called Ashbourne, having moved to Ireland from the UK some 25 years ago with the company I was with at the time.

In theory I am retired, in practice, I've not stopped working yet, though what I'm doing now doesn't have too much...

Hi all, after selling my XM some years ago, I'm back in a big hydrapneumatic Citroën, this time a C5 tourer 2.2 hdi 200 exclusive. I've only had the car 2 weeks, but I'm impressed so far with the quality and luxurious feel of the driving experience. Hopefully this continues and I don't need too much technical advice!

Long time lurker first post today!

Hello

I've been meaning to join this forum for a while, having owned Citroen XMs for years, but I've just bought a Peugeot 205 van to go with them and am now happily commuting in it. It makes a change not to have to wait for the suspension to rise before setting off.

Eifion

New owner of a Citroen van. Getting a few niggles ironed out on it but have run into a snag with one thing hence why I looked for help on the net and came across this forum. Basically one of the niggles was that the previous owner had the air suspension changed to conventional springs but there is now a warning on the display as the ecu...

Hi Folks

I'm new to the forum with a wiper motor issue.

I have a 2012 Citroen Relay that has an intermittent wiper problem. The wipers work fine in normal/fast speed operation as long as they haven't been on intermittent or wash/wipe mode, where they sometimes then 'stick' in the off position and won't then work in any mode for a period of time....

Hello there,

I've just recently got hold of a '58' C5 Exclusive 138 with the lovely 6 speed auto. first off, I'm very impressed. I've always been a fan of 'big Citroens'. (I remember as a child being taken home in a friends dad's Xantia and being amazed at the suspension etc.)

So, when I got the chance to get hold of a C5 I took it and am very...

Nice to be back in the land of the magic carpet.
Cheers.

Hi all, I've somehow ended up with a pair of Frenchies :) which couldn't be more different to each other! Keep wishing new car designers would talk to the old boys before they retire - and not shoot themselves in the foot trying to reinvent the wheel. Looking forward to reading some entertaining if not informative posts...

I'm madcat and I bought a Citroen Dispatch 1.9 diesel van . It's 2004 vintage so new for me . Bought to replace a Berlingo called Satan .

Other bad habits include restoring a 1937 narrow boat .
