Where To Buy A C5?

[lrochfort]

Hello all,

 

I'm looking for an 01-04 C5 2.0 HDi (110bhp) Manual Estate. Not really looking to spend more than £1000.

 

Apart from AutoTrader, Exhange and Mart, ebay and Gumtree, can you please recommend good places to look?

 

I'm in Berkshire if that makes a difference.

 

Thanks all,

Laurence.

You have listed them all but if you want a specific car you may need to travel a long way. You could also try a Citroen dealer in case they are getting one as a part ex. There are auctions but with a good demand they probably would not end up there. 

 

When I changed from a 2004 hatchback to a 2007 estate, it took me a year before I managed to get one at a low enough mileage and the right spec and then by chance it was only 3 miles away so I beat the rush/queue of people wanting it. This was a trader/garage using Autotrader. If you need to raise your budget, if you later sell the car then it is likely you will get it back. For some reason estates dearer than hatchbacks (also when new), maybe not many were made and people with them do not want to change.

Anywhere that is selling them is usually a good start! :-)

You could probably get an early facelift version for £1000. I think they are better than the mk1.
