I had a pinto in there with rebuit head and twin dellortos. Swapped the car for a Porsche 924 Turbo, which was b****y fast! Only 177 BHP (Phase 2, English spec) but weighed nothing. As for the Hayabusa engine, the Robin Hood chassis wasn't really capable enough.


BTW nice hoodie!

Aluminium Gear knob
Xenon headlights
Chrome tail pipe
Sport rear spoiler
Security Pack (Anti-theft alarm (perimetric and volumetric) and Laminated Side Acoustic Glass)

Not sure if its the same on the diesel but on the 180 the traction control and ESP etc can be completely turned off for when you want to have some fun.


Weird, have things changed then? Because I got xenons, security pack and an aluminium gear stick?

My 05 HDi has Alarm, Xenons, Alloy/Leather gear knob, Laminated Glass and Bluetooth. Didn't come with a spoiler, but I had one on within two hours of getting it home!

No diesels come with the chrome tail pipe. The exhaust is tucked away under the back bumper. I looked into changing the rear valance and getting a petrol style chrome end, but it would've required a bit of fabrication to the existing back box.

I'm guessing the diesel doesn't get a full chrome gear knob either because of the lift up reverse of the *ahem* six speed box.

Just to add to my review: Was on the M1 today and there is a 50mph traffic system. I set my speed limiter to 50 mph and just cruised, safe in the knowledge I wasn't going to get done by those nice new 'average speed' cameras. Why don't all cars have one? This would stop those guys who speed up/ slow down as they come to the next camera. A clever bit of kit.

Haha....

But no, it's called working for Citroen and having one sitting there waiting ready for picking the car up!

I was going to fit it the next day when I got to work on my lunch, by I took it home with me the evening before so I could fit it that night!

Couldn't be seen in a coupe without a spoiler

(joke BTW!)

No it's no joke Phil

It's Stuey's mission in life to get every C4 Coupe fitted with a spoiler
