MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
So, my brother has just called me. He has very little money, he needs a car with 7 seats, and he needs it very quickly as his current vehicle has just died.
He is looking to buy a 2004 Citroen C8 he saw on autotrader for £1900. Private sale.
Would you? Any advice?
Probably not old and French due to dodgy electrics. Earlier HDi engines are past their best now although the last of the non-common rail XUDs will do a million miles. Would he get into a Galaxy/Alhambra/Sharan for the money? Failing that private sale mazda 5 or Premacy?
honda shuttle or stream
toyota previa
or the mazda's mentioned above
If it was my money and I had worked hard to scrape it together I would look for something japanese or at least non-french. We had the Peugeot equivalent of the C8 from new and had plenty of issues with it, so a nine year old one would make me nervous...
