Hi Matt have you got a pic off yours

Looks very nice.

Sable Bivouac Nacre Met wasn't my first colour choice but you'll find it doesn't show the dirt and also doesn't fade like other colours.

I particularly wanted the 2.0Hdi and couldn't find a Desire so had to opt for a one year old Forte. That was 2005 and I'm still not disappointed.

Hi bikerbaker what's your view on the 2.0 hdi

Hi bikerbaker what's your view on the 2.0 hdi

IMHO it's been superb. 

In 2005 I was finally in a position to buy a new Multispace after a few years of looking at them (I have a history of Citroens). By that time they had updated to a 1.6Hdi but I was suspicious so ended up buying my car used from a Citroen dealer. Hindsight would suggest I was right, the 2.0Hdi is less complicated.

It's on 120,000 now and has had a hard life including long drags to SW France, towing of trailers and caravans, use as Dad's taxi ferrying my kids around and 3 years of sporadic local use on short journeys. Latest use was as a microcamper with a small motorcycle hanging off the back. It still seems to run as well as it ever did.

My son was 12 when I bought it, he now lives in Aus and uses it when visiting the UK with his wife. 

I did have plans to change it for a B9 just to get an opening tailgate window but put that on hold. It owes me nothing and it is really a family member. Not sure if I'd have got away with a 1.6.

Looking good like how you did the roof rack
