When there is a will and all.........


Only kidding. Does anyone know of somewhere local(ish) that is selling a Citroen C1 or similar for around £4,000 max budget?


For some reason the mother inlaw only wants a Citroen full stop. I suggested a C3 but.......she wants a C1 as the C3 is too big!!!??

If anyone knows of a C1 for sale please let me know.


Thanks
Steve

A car for the mother-in-law? Sounds like a good swap.

Shame she only wants a Citroen as imo the Aygo is prettier (just). The Peugeot 107, Citroen C1 and Toyota Aygo are identical and seem to be similar in price. There's a 26K red C1 in Milton Keynes in the classifieds. Good luck, i loath doing jobs for the MIL!

Does she do many miles?
There were some Lease deals about, £1200 deposit and £60 a month, but only 5k miles a year allowance.
Ok, not everyone likes leasing but thats only £2600 over 2 years for a brand new car.
Think of the warranty....no hassle for you wink

Sounds like my daugher. She drives a KA and thought a beemer E36 Compact was too big for her!

Thank you all for your reply. John R , I'm so sorry I only just came across your email . Thank you kindly.


The mother in law managed to get her wish. I drove it the other day.....never felt so unsafe in my life.
