I ordered "sports Red".... Wicked red is V. nice, but I'm just too tight to pay extra for metallic. thanks for the pluriel wheel trim info. as for no test drive, I know what you mean, but I've sat in one, fit comftably ( a rare thing at 6ft 2, with 35inch inside leg!).....If you can tell me of ANY other car that does 70+mpg, for under 10K, that I can fit in, with reach adjustable steering and supportive seats to stop me getting a bad back then I'd test drive it, but no. As you say, Citroen are there first again, just watch the others follow.

Thanks for your reply, yeah, it's the semi auto diesel (I need diesel for MPG, and need the sports seats due to a bad back...there isn't a manual option, but I know I'm going to love being lazy with the auto). I've opted for the air con too...your wifes dream car by the sound of it? an even got the price down to £8595 (+air con at £500) so I'm well pleased. I honestly haven't seen a furio (petrol or diesel)(hell, I haven't even test driven a C2 one) so don't know what the trims are like, but they sound ideal, have you got any pics? Thanks.

Hi there, I've just ordered my C2 HDI furio, which I think should look the biz' and give me the Mpg I need...the only thing I wish it had was Alloys. Yes I know that Citroen sell them , but I just can't afford / or warrant £120 per wheel! I was in Halfords / ripspeed yesterday and they were doing 4 Very nice wheels for £175!! (no tyres), I planned to swap the 15" tyres off the furio straight onto some alloys, but how can I find out the correct spec for wheel offset etc? I know the VTR /VTS have 16", but I'm happy to stick with my 15"s (cheaper tyres for the high miles I do...and already fitted when I get the car, so less expense). Many thanks for any help.
