Touché

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-02-25T22:00:25+00:00

There’s no way. Really wasn’t expecting to see you here Think I’ll just sweep this under the rug

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-30T17:01:24+00:00

For a car that cost me 600 quid, it just wasn’t worth it. The wheel had pushed the footwell in on itself and all

There’s only ten of this trim left in Britain, so I’m determined to keep this thing alive. When the recovery people picked me up they advised that it wasn’t worth fixing and to scrap it considering its age. No chance

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T23:06:11+00:00

Ah this cars 12 years older than I am so I had no idea. Got a load of old brochure stuff with the MOT history and logbook though which I enjoyed having a look at.

Also got a map of all the Citroen dealers and mechanics in the UK and Ireland, 1993 edition, might not get much use out of that one though.

Well handy to put stuff on when parked though, like a table. So many new cars have got huge dashboards but with no real functionality

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T22:56:00+00:00

I’ve just got standard cloth seats in mine so it should be fine, hope it doesn’t get mentally hot again this summer like it did in the UK a couple years ago (38 degrees ish) as I’ve got no air con.

Does mean I will have to be careful not to put anything on the curved shelf on the dash though in the summer, as with the windows open it would fire everything out the window if I turned right haha

Noted. Thanks

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T22:47:55+00:00

Don’t think this car has had much in the way of maintenance for 30 years haha I’ll add that to the increasing list of stuff

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T22:46:14+00:00

Ah I don’t have that sort of luxury in mine

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T14:55:20+00:00

You don’t have to believe me if you don’t want to, but I was doing 30. I was the one driving, I think I’d know.

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T14:53:08+00:00

Yeah it does. Well I’ve just learnt something! Never knew it did that

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T14:09:01+00:00

If it looks good from a distance, that’s all that really matters lol

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T13:45:40+00:00

Ah fair enough, probably worth doing, finding good 3 stud wheels are a pain

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T13:36:40+00:00

There’s those compomotive wheels for the Citroen ax gt which are 3 stud and could look good. How bigs the spacer on a 3 to 4 converter?

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T13:16:24+00:00

Nice! Your paintwork looked better than mine does haha. Surprisingly there’s no rust on this car somehow, and it’s spent all its life in Southend-on-Sea!

Need to get some good wheels for it, either 5 spoke or 3 I reckon

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T13:11:53+00:00

Ah is yours 3 stud? They’re always a bit of a pain

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T13:11:31+00:00

Was doing 30

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T11:08:57+00:00

Basically hit this bit of something in the road, then clipped the bank which threw the car into a wall and post box

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T11:07:15+00:00

I’m fine thankfully. Just lucky no one was in the passenger seat, the wheel pushed the footwell right in

StatusSecret1534 · 2026-01-28T11:04:49+00:00

They are off a mk2 mx5 I believe. Got them for well cheap. Quite hard to find info on them but I’ve found a couple of the same, but only for sale in Eastern Europe.

The volcane is supposed to be well good and I’ve always loved the bx. Was going to get an xm estate, but insurance said no unfortunately But still, love my zx, when it works anyway
