Bugger me! They sold one!

Post by stu » 20 Nov 2007

Apologies for the crappy camera phone pic, but here it is - proof positive that Citroen have sold a C6 in the UK!

Image

They had one on the dealer stand at the National, and I saw one when I was in France the other week, but this is the first I've seen in the wild in the UK. I was beginning to doubt that the RHD version really existed.

It was an odd sight - the only car parked on the whole High Street, right outside a pub :lol:
Cheers,
Stu

I've seen a few C6's now, but not yet clapped eyes on a C-Crosser Nissan thing, or whatever the hell it is.
Off road? Nah, crossing a pavement to the driveway maybe..
1989 BX 17TD P2 Hybrid
1990 BX 16V It's got big hairy bollocks
1971 BL 350FG ambulance
1993 Dennis Lance 132 It's got mahooosive hairy bollocks!


Euthenasia, because enough's enough already.

oooh clever me then cos I've seen a C6 (just the one) and one of those Citroen Crossdresser things. Utter shite. Utter utter pile of shite.
The C6 did look better in the flesh I reckon although it was a fleeting glimpse at it were driving tother way... :(

the crosser aint shite mate, it might not be much of a citroen, but everyone recognises its superior significance, 5th gear even rate it and there quite sceptical of softroaders!

Remember two things, its affectively a free car for citroen, its a mitsubishi underneath, and by most of its looks, thus saving cit the bother of actually designing anything
and softroaders are the biggest growing market in most developed contries, all citroen are doing is taking proven technology from a rival and cashing in!

i really like them, but only if there good off road, i need to get to an open day or speak nicely to the man i know who runs the local landrover experience :D

Fair dooo's bud. I dont know much....anything.....about the car tbh except I find the thing ugly and frankly dull. I'm not convinced how Cit will do out if it either. What is it...a softroader..it seems something and nothing and I suppose the fact that it's a growng market says alot about the taste in motors these days. I hope it does well for the sake if Cit but it looks like a cross between a big blamonge and a sack of spuds :lol:
As you say tho' if it's a 'freebie' so to speak then perhaps they can be competitive...is it cheap do you know?

latests prices i've seen is around £16,000 which seems cheap to me, but i have no idea how that compares with the rest of the market sector!

find me a soft roader that isn't abusively priced that looks half decent, cos i bet you can't, there are ugly its the nature of the beast!
