Both my Citroens have been bargains, first was 6 months old and I got 3k off the asking price because I was slippin his neice (he owns the citroen garages in torquey, exeter and somewhere else).

Traded it in 8 months later for 2k more than I bought it for, got my car brand new minus citroen deals (was about £1500), my px, and a full tank and new mats and 3 free services. So it made a 16k car very cheap
