Anyone looking for a 1st new driver car?
Maybe a cheap runner ?
Economical commuter ?
How about the lowest insurance group on a car, 3 ?
If so this practical 5 door Citroen could be the answer ...
The car is just £20 to tax for a whole year , and does a claimed 74 MPG on a run , it must sniff the fuel to do that, wow !
Another main dealer px, just collected to day from a BMW dealership in Nottingham.
Again not the longest journey we do for our cars, but still a good hour and a quarter in traffic and around 57miles is a good test drive.
Any way, the car arrived in fairly good condition,
We've given it a full valet, and a machine polish, and it does drive as well as it looks...
****PLEASE NOTE: This car is an insurance category N- NON structural repaired .
To be fair, its probably one of the cleanest and tidiest insurance category cars we've ever had.
If you look at the photos, you'll notice its had a new passenger front wing, its a shade darker, and both black daytime running light covers seem to have been painted, so its had a small boop at the front, but not enough to structurally damage the car.
Apart from that the cars in lovely condition.
The category means you get a cheaper car than normal, as we sold exactly the same type and age of car with 55k miles on it 2 weeks ago for £3k ******
- MECHANICALS:
The car is obviously pretty basic,
The 1.0 litre 3 cylinder engine does sound like an angry sewing machine,
Chain driven, so NO cam belts to worry about.
Its 67 horses are not gong to set the world on fire, but that's not what this car is about,
Economy, and so it changes gears well, all 5 of them,
And potters along, getting upto 60 mph in a spritely 12 seconds.
There is NO service history with this car, and so, we've just had the car serviced, ready for the new adventures....
- EXTERIOR:
The practical 5 door car is finished in timeless metallic silver.
It's probably got a nice French sounding name, but does look bright.
We've given it a full machine polish , and apart the new front wing mentioned above,
Its only the odd mark here and there, and does seem to have been loved for the last 13 years on the roads, as the paintwork all seems original and fresh....
New 14' shiny wheel trims help the look...
- INTERIOR:
Usual Citroen charcoal trimmed seats look well.
Funky multi coloured striped seat bolsters look nice.
High backed with no separate head rest they do work well.
No abrasion to the seat bolsters, and all are in good condition,
The 2 front electric windows work,
Carpets have cleaned upwell
Aftermarket fitted mat set is in the boot,
Speaking of the boot, the 3' wide parcel shelf is missing, not that you'll notice with the small boot ....
- FEATURES:
NOT alot,
- Electric front windows,
- Radio cd with Aux,
- Remote central locking,
- Front driving lamps,
- Aircon, cold ish, but not ice cold
err that's about it really..
There is NO sat nav, climate, heated seats or apple car play thingy in this car im afraid.....
- THE CAR HAS:
- Full V5, shows 5 previous owners,
- 12m MOT 17/07/2026, advisory for a brake pipe covered in grease.
- 1 remote key,
- Spare wheel , jack and tools in the boot....
- TYRES:
The car has 4 good tyres on it, all over 5mm ,
All are Hankooks.
Who puts premium branded tyres on a cheap learner or commuter type car these days ?,
Normally they are budget Chinese brands, so someone has obviously loved this car..
Spare looks new and unused too....
- RUNNING COSTS:
The car costs just £20 to tax for a whole year,
Does 74 mpg on a run, or 55 mpg in town,
And is an insurance group 3....
- LOCATION:
The car is located in a small village 3 miles east of Lincoln centre,
Great for NO traffic test drives,

About us:
We are a husband and wife team.
Having spent 18 years in the motor trade, owning our own business as a car painter and refinisher, time and mainly my back and knees caught up with me !
So now we source and sell cars direct from the trade we used to work with.
All cars are driven a minimum of 40 miles, so we can assess the creeks and groans.
Most cars ( unless listed as spares or repairs) are sold with a minimum of 6 months MOT, but preferably with a fresh 12 months MOT for peace of mind.
Where possible we source full service history cars.
Our stock changes daily, mainly due to the lower margins we charge to create a higher volume.
I do love the Vw group cars,( VW, Audi, Seat, Skoda ) so you will see a lot of those, plus the smaller engine , cheap to tax and insure cars.
If there is something that takes your fancy, get in contact for a chat, were we practice the time forgotten art of customer service .
Warranty:
Warranties are available by request.
