Hi folks
...for me at least..
Yesterday I placed an order for a Berlingo XL Flair XTR petrol 130 auto, in Platinum Grey. A test drive (M Flair 130 auto) on Friday was my first time driving a Citroen. By the time I swap vehicles next year (?) I'll have been driving Skodas for 19 years, with Fords the 19 years before that. Clearly time to change marque
Now settling down for the long wait to get a build week!

Heh. I would have never imagined myself driving a French car, especially after the M59 Cargo van flop I experienced. Then I took a pan-European trip in my colleague's new K9 and I was sold. Even tho everything about it is "cheap" and it depreciates like there's no tomorrow, it's excellent to drive, better than several cars double the price I've owned. Add function and it's worth more than the purchase price.

And a year later than originally expected the Berlingo has turned up. 15 months wait has been a long time! Lots to get used to now

Just seen this thread
Boop, you obviously dont live in the UK, K9s by Citroen Peugeot and Vauxhall (Opel) hold their value here
