kinkersaab Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 This is my second. After my first, i said if i get the chance of a black with cream and all the toys i would buy it. This was a one local to me retired owner plus duthies montrose citroen demo. With a full service history by them, until i got it at 75000 and had my guys do it. It has now done 78000 miles. Its a 2.7 exclusive with lounge pack, i have fitted two new tyres and it will need a front wheel bearing for its mot.I have both keys and all the books and sat nav disc.I wont bore you with the specs, but its got everything, head up display, steering headlights, double glazing, elec htd reclining rear seats, blah blah blah.....Bodily its very good and totaly oriinal, the wheels are showing signs of being 11 years old. Internally its as near to perfect as you will get, it feels very special. I can't think of anything to mark it down on, again, mechanically everything does as it should, and does it well. It occasionally says there is a fault with the parking sensor, it ocasionaly says there is a fault with suspnsion,it doesnt store a code,just beeps and displays suspension fault, the it goes away for ever. It seems to do it after a brisk drive, when you are going slow through a village, and not always, the owner before me said it had done it for a few years after having a new front suspension strut?? Anyhow, it doesnt bother or affect it, so i ignore and give a galic shrugg when it happens. There are no warning lights or hidden issues i am aware of, i just dont use it, the mot has lapsed, of course i can do an mot for a buyer, but really cba doing it for it to not sell, and be put away for ,well, for as long as it isnt needed. i genuinely believe these are on their arse price wise, and nice low owner low miles ones in what i consider the best colour combo are getting scarce. I would happily let anyone drive this anywhere now, as she sits, needing a wash and polish £3400. Oh, i had the plastic thermostat housing thing done as they apesr to be a weak point. Oh, and if its the last £3400 to your name, dont spend it all on a c6, they do need money thrown at them from time to time, by my god are they worth it.

BorniteIdentity Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I think THESE are solid gold future classics - but that's not why any of us are over here on the "Page du Beige". GLWS. Seems like a very fair price all told. More pictures definitely required in order for me to get a proper hard on. Otherwise, it's like trying to play snooker with a rope. blakey79 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I saw one of these in the wild the other day, the styling is just mental enough to stand out from everything else. I can't recall seeing another for quite a while. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobT Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Here's a local one I see near work. Awesome/terrifying in equal measure. I can't afford it sadly but GLWTS, the interior looks a nicer place to sit than my living room. Aston Martin and richardmorris 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaseracer Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I can't get past the fact that these are essentially a 407 in a gas-suspended Chanel suit. I wish I could - believe me, I've tried - but sadly there we are... That said, it looks great. GLWTS, etc. Uncle Jimmy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlo Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I think this is the only modern car I really crave, yet have a horrible suspicion it won't turn out to drive as well as it looks (not that that probably matters when it looks like that).

JayW Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 One has IMMENSE horn for a C6. If I could afford the wife to chop my massive testicles off I'd jump at this, it's exactly the sort of thing I'd do! Fortunately though, I'm all full of cars right now and as it's winter I need my bollocks to keep my bumhole warm.

Dirk Diggler Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I know somebody that's ran an 07 one since 2010 as a taxi; it's getting retired soon with over 400000km; and it hasn't broke his heart; he's kept on top of maintenance after buying the best he could find; but he's struggling to find anything remotely as good to replace it with egg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDeere Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Please don't put temptation in my way Would love to see some more pics though, just in case. I think this is the best of the big cits.. uber rare, not obvious like a DS, not crispy with "interesting" handling like a CX, and not a bit too conventional like an XM.
