Mike wants a Citroen Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Hi. My name is mike and I'm currently looking for a c3 diesel 1.6 hdi. I have up to £1500 to spend and ideally would hope to find one in Cumbria. Anybody out there with one for sale? Quote
paul.h Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Welcome to the forum. The 1.6 hdi C3 did not come out until 2005, up to then there was only the 1.4 hdi diesel engine. Your chance of finding a 1.6 hdi for £1500 is very low unless it had a mega mileage or needed a new turbo or other expensive repairs. You should get a 1.4 hdi or 1.4 petrol. I have moved your post in to a subsection since ones outside of one do not show after a few days and may be difficult to find. Quote

paul.h Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I had a quick look on autotrader and another site - there was a 1.6 hdi C3 with accident damage for £995 and the next was about £1900 from Evans Hallshaw but had high miles, plus this company will not reduce its price if you ask and for more than 3 months warranty you have to pay extra and there may be other charges (our experience when thinking of buying a car from them - it turned out to be more expensive than the price on the windscreen). If it does not need to be a C3, you will get a decent diesel C5 for less than £1500. Quote
john h Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Or a very good Xsara Picasso with more room than the c3 [had both, now on a c4 pic] Quote
