Hi,
our 05 plate 1.4 forte was accidentally reversed into at warp factor 8 by our daughter in her new automatic motability car. Apart from a complete bumper being required, I have fitted a new rad and hoses - the old one being wrapped around exhaust! My problem has been with trying to locate the lower rubber bushes for mounting the rad, a fan surround, and the cold air intake scoop that mounts to the front panel.
I have scoured the usual interweb suppliers and the ever popular ebay, but cannot find what I need. I did resort to parts gateway with no luck. Local vehicle dismantlers (I live in Leeds) were not helpful, neither was the local Citroen dealer who was reluctant to provide part numbers for these items and then went on to advise the lower mounts were not listed.
Does anyone have any thoughts on where I can get these few bits - rather than accepting the car will end up a write off.
