Tell us a little about yourself, lie if you have to but keep it to just an introduction, not a car discussion.

First Citroen

Post by StuStu »

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

Welcome to the Forum Stu. I'm sure you'll find a wealth of information here to both understand about the C5 and to deal with any issues.

Welcome

There's definitely no 'normal' car that matches a hydraulic Citroen for ride.

Welcome to the Forum & Citroen Cars from another Stu.
Glad you like you 'new' car, but alas Citroen have stopped making the Hydropneumatic suspension so this could be your one & only.

Welcome to the forum. It is not compulsory to have a car problem to take part.

Try this Initiation thread for example

Yes all sorts of topics get discussed on the OTCL section of the forum. :-D
