Bucky, you should be careful, it sounds like you have a mercury build up in your brain that's causing you to have hallucinations, its also making you a short cunt.

Surprisingly nothing has gone wrong with my Wife's Citroen in two and a half years .  That's probably put the kiss of death on it now :classic_laugh:

Expand  

I am vehemently anti Citroen and most french cars but first hand experience was mixed.  We had a Xsara Picasso (wifes choice) which was a money pit, head gasket, collapsed rear axle, and much other expensive shit.  I had a early 1996 mk1 Belingo van, 1.8D non turbo, second hand with 133,000 miles on it when I got it, and honestly it was still mechanically good when I sold it with 196,000 on the clock.  Never missed a beat, in fact it is still taxed now 5 years later.   Also had a 1997 Peugeot 106 1.1, what a peachy handling little car, you could drive the wheels off that and had an absolute hoot in it.  I think with French cars some models and specs are good, most are self destructing shite.  Not that I would ever own one again.    I like old German and Swedish cars which is what we have had ever since.   Not much interested in new stuff, but if I had to it would be a smallish  VW/Seat/Skoda.

Renault 😡 don't go there. 

I had a Magane (stupid me) the dephaser pulley went, then the heater packed up, it went through wheel bearings like they were going out of fashion, the windows would go down on their own, inconvenient when it was 3c and no heater, it leaked water like a seive in wet weather, fusebox was one lump of corrosion which caused the lights, wiper and indicators not too work , I did not keep it long, obviously. 

Expand  

My brother in law got a Megane after driving one on a track day, don't remember him having it that long.:classic_laugh:

One thing the French were doing well were their diesel engines, Renault and pugs.

Sister in law has a Renault Captur (2019 model) that too is a troublesome car, Engine management light has been on 3 times, caused by a different sensor each time, the indicator/lights stalk has been replaced twice, window regulator packed up twice, and the built in sat nav is next to useless, it freezes and sometimes will not work at all, she also looses her temper when I say it's just a Dacia in a posh frock 😂

Yep, the Citroen was her choice.  I don't stray far from Japanese cars nowadays , I've never had an unreliable Jap car .

Sis in laws Captur is a diesel,  not sure what the engine size it is though.....no point asking her, because she would not have a clue,  she has dark hair, but I suspect she is blonde in reality.  😂

Have you ever had a nice looking car ?

Three Capri’s back in the day . 
 

Im not really interested in what a car looks like now, reliability and practability are more important.

I don’t need to have a penis extension now 😉

That'll be a 1500cc Normally a good engine. Like the pugs it'll be the software letting it down. As for the other faults, chinessium.

Her Captur has never let her down, always starts and runs OK, even with the management light on, her husband (who tries to check sis in laws car over) is hoping there are not any more engine sensors to go wrong, last 2 episodes have cost £400+ both times......

When my indicator/lights/hooter stalk malfunctioned I went to the local Dacia dealer..... a new stalk sir?, that will be £145 please 😲, so i bought one off Flea Bay....£20, to all intents and purposes it is identical to the Dacia original, I expected it to fuck up quickly  but here we are 6 years later, working like a good un (that will be the kiss of death now 😂)

Trouble is they have you by the bollocks, no option but to use their services, and get charged handsomely for the privilege.
