Long Term C5

[citroeneddie]

Just a quick note to all regarding the long term high mileage use of my C5.

 

It will be 3 years old in April and has 95k on the clock. Apart from a DPF change at 62k and a rear screen, no extra work needed and it has been absolutely brilliant.

 

It has never let me down, the electrics have been fine and still returns average of 56mpg.

 

400m return trip to Norwich yesterday and got out as fresh as a daisy.

 

Press and journalsits may scoff at Citroens but I would never look at anything else for work

 

I would have a new shape C5 but am downsizing to a C4 EGS in April with all the extras as I have a Picasso for holidays and breaks.

mine will be 6 yrs old May, prob have 160k+ on it, & is slowly but surely falling apart :blink:

last cleaned Easter, real workhorse, does what i need it to do.

would i buy another one?... err prob not, too many potential probs even with the later cars although i do like the look of the new one out this year
