A fitting location for its photo shoot.BlueHave said:
My guess is at that mileage (160k) that engine is suffering from a stretched timing chain which causes the EML to illuminate.Easily cleared with a code reader, but will return within a few miles.
This seems to affect the 170bhp more than the 150bhp of the 2.3 V5.

That's a great car. Tolerably quick, lovely and comfortable, cheap as chips to run, will go on until it eventually rusts away. Brilliant.Usget said:

Agreed, great cars, buy my old 51 plate failed its MOT for rust reasons at 60k ish miles. It looked mint cosmetically, but they rust on the bulkhead and also near the subframe mounts on the floorpan. Such a shame.twin turbo diesel under 100k with full mot for just over bb.....

It's a fairly decent looking car for peanuts which is possibly why all the Dominos delivery drivers around my neck of woods buy cheap diesel Passats. I drove past my local branch recently and there was about 7 parked up outside. It's like the go-to motor for them.
In West Yorkshire Micras and Yaris's are still the takeaway delivery car of choice but our regular work kebab Thursday is often delivered in an Evoque.

I had a facelift C5 as a DD for almost 3 years. So, so comfortable and never missed a beat. Loved long trips.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-C5-2-2hdi-VTX-di...
(Mine was a petrol, auto)
Probably as dull as cars can get, but I reckon as a family bus you couldn't go far wrong with this.
