Popular Post Inspector Morose Posted September 23, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2015 And ended up buying this: Mainly because of this: Now, there isn't a collection thread yet as I haven't yet returned home with it. I live in Brum but the CX is in Scotland. The fairly unique nature of my work sees me in Scotland at the moment driving this: Obviously I can't drive both so the Citroen is being stored at chez 320touring until next weekend when another driver will come on up to take over pink bus driving duties. Then the long, wafty journey back south will continue and tales will be told fully. Lord Sterling, DVee8, danthecapriman and 59 others 62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skattrd Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I was expecting the purchase of a 2 door convertible or similar as you were after an estate, but the CX looks class. Well done sir, hat doffed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beko1987 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 That looks like the right way to do it. And 320 can have a nice view out the window for the rest of the week. I presume some citrobatics were performed? 320touring 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkman Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Them Scottish would never sell a Volvo Diesel Estate abroad, so a CX is the only thing you really can buy there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forddeliveryboy Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Needs reproofing as often as the red-oxide bridge in the background. Two lovely pieces of engineering. Top buy - drive it at 1970s French speeds (piedatheplank), carry plenty of Kleenex. Or waft in trilby fashion. Unruffled however fast or slow.

Lord Sterling Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Excellent! I fear however, you won't be the only one in Birmingham driving a Gold-coloured Citroën CX: flat4alfa, Shep Shepherd, DVee8 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rml2345 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 It's fabulous and the ride is utterly superb. Mr FPB7 was kind enough to take me round in it and it was very surreal seeing a pothole or an expansion joint or something but not feeling it. Most of the roads in Central Scotland are knackered in one way or another but you couldn't feel a thing.And it's luxuriously brown inside.You lucky sod. davidfowler2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabergé Greggs Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Was very tempted myself! I've known the guy that was selling it for years from when I used to live in Glasgow, I nearly bought his previous blue CX from him yonks back. Sounds like a cracker. Well in!
