Stuey Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 yes I will most probably go for another C4. I took the VRI extra insurance thingy out so I will get more back than what I paid for it and the fact of the matter is there simply isnt another car that has the style of the C4 let alone the toys. I think it will have to be a 1.6 VTR+ as there is £2000 cashback offers through January so I can afford it. Just need to decide on colour :( couldnt decide last time, I had to roll a dice on it!. Iridis is high on my list... The Ka isnt bad, its just not a C4... Quote
ham's c4vts Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 your blue still looks nice mate(even with the dents! :( ) Quote
wozza Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Iridis I quite liked but seeing it in the metal I was not as impressed with it but in the books and pictures it looked great. Bitch to keep clean though. The 1.6 vtr+ would definitely be a nicer drive though. Those near 3 seconds off 0-60 are very noticeable. Not to mention the extra toys and not much difference insurance / fuel wise. Quote
Stuey Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 your blue still looks nice mate(even with the dents! :( )tell you what, it looked awesome on the back of the recovery truck. Its the first time I have seen it at "eye" level. Did'nt think of taking any pics as I was taken back by the colour of the Ka. I dont mind if its hard to keep clean, dirty cars look good I have decided. I would want to see one in the metal if at all possible as the colour chart on the Citroen website is shockingly poor even on a properly colour balanced monitor. The Oriental Blue looks nothing like the pics on the site. I am really stuck for choices... Silver-not a chanceBlack-would have to offered more money off but is an optionIridis-winning at the momentRed-dont like it that much and the insurance is more.Green-nasty!thats about it...I have been looking at the Audi RS4 brochure (friends just ordered one), C4 colours are very limited in comparison. It would definatly be a VTR+. I was going to buy one from the start but bizzarly I was talked out of it by the saleswoman. More poke+more toys=good stuff! Quote
ham's c4vts Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 I have been looking at the Audi RS4 brochure (friends just ordered one), C4 colours are very limited in comparison. They look awsome in Red or Blue (Audi RS4) Quote
Stuey Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 he went for a dark grey in the end. Now he waits til May for delivery as each one is built to order. It is funny some of the options he paid for are standard kit on VTR+'s such as the reactive rear view mirror and auto wipers and lights! You are paying for the engine though to be fair to Audi. I cant wait to drive it! Quote
Stuey Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 my car is being fixed!!!! should be home for the end of the month! I spoke to the garage this morning, they had the OK yesterday afternoon and they have taken off the front bumper, wing, door, whole side panel and they are taking the interior out today. All the parts are available apart from the side panel which is being bought in from Portugal hence the delay in getting it back. They are also putting 4 new wheels and tyres on it! They are taking some pictures for me with the side off. I will post em when I get them. Quote
Rich_Eason Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 HURRAY!!! Same wheels as in the ones you got off the chap on ebay? Quote
wozza Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Nice one mate. Are your current wheels wrecked or could they be refurbished easily enough? As if its only cheap to get them back and repair them might be worth selling them on again might get a bit of cash for them. Quote
ham's c4vts Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 im sure a few people on her would buy one as a spare including me :D :D Quote
Stuey Posted January 13, 2007 Author Posted January 13, 2007 they are replacing the wheels, they found some cracks in them when they cleaned them off. I checked that they would be the 17's and they said yes. Quote
Fizzo17 Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I'm glad things worked out for you in the end :D Quote
