The receptacle supplies power to electrical items but the lighter element does not heat up, so it must be broken or just dirty.

As it turned out I managed to get a small flame out of my lighter after much trying, just enough to light my cigarette thankfully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turvey Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I don't like the 'view' from our hotel window! Having said that, we're only sleeping here and didn't book for the view! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMX Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I don't like the summery 20°C morning weather has in the last couple of hours become a wintery 5°C , when the southerly wind did a 180° U-turn and is now drawing some Arctic like air over, from the north. Pipper's evening stroll will require a fleece and a hat now: whereas this morning's even a shirt felt a little too overdressed for the heat I also don't like the power steering fluid that dripped on to the drive as I drove the Mk1 up to my ramps last week, to replace it's pressure switch, is still there, despite copious applications of Swarfega oil remover, various drive cleaners and a hearty powerwash One less obvious solution would be to apply Ford green power steering fluid over the whole drive, so it's becomes a uniform colour .

The cable is white and doesn't match the tile colour it should be black. 2. It's not straight down and clipped along the fascia. 3. The spouting is beyond needing a clean it's corroded and affecting the plaster on the wall underneath. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are fortunate it is just the bumper though, as it could easily have damaged the bonnet and grille, plus the radiator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeez! Shame, I hope it can be repaired. Chances are though that most insurers would write it off. Look on the bright side though, you could have got a Corsa!!

I wouldn't be seen dead in a modern Citroen, terrible cars! I know new cars are designed to "absorb" the damage so that the cabin is protected, but I prefer older vehicles because they can withstand collisions better without falling to pieces. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisroberson99 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 What do you define as "modern"? Yes, the ones from 10 years ago weren't the best but the C4 Cactus and new C3 have been well received by reviewers and the public. Whether you like them or not is a different matter, I don't see why they are "terrible cars" personally. It's all personal taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last of the good Citroens in my opinion was the Xantia which ceased production in 2002. After the C5 and subsequent models were released they were incredibly unreliable, at least that's what I've heard from people who have owned them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonro2009 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Never owned a Citroen but always fancied a BX, that's the one with the hydropneumatic suspension isn't it? The 4TC looked pretty good and had the longer nose to allow for the engine to be mounted sideways. My dad had a 2CV at one point too but I wasn't around to see that one haha. My uncle recently put a cactus through a crash test, albeit an impromptu one, which it passed but it will never go again [emoji53] he will though thanks to its crumple zones and what not.EDIT I forgot I owned a saxo VTR MK2, a car better forgotten to be honest Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
