“THE WORST CAR I HAVE OWNED IN 35 YEARS! ”

written by Barry Scotland on 07/08/2010

THE WORST CAR I HAVE OWNED IN 35 YEARS!

I own a 2007 2L turbo diesel that I bought as a demonstrator with 6,000km and so far the faults have been numerous and extremely frustrating:



Faulty rear suspension arms - new ones had to come from France; faulty windscreen washer sensor; faulty tyre sensor; faulty drivers seat (loose bolts); faulty electric windows (2); faulty turbo; faulty top engine mount; faulty drivers seat belt; faulty radio; faulty drivers door pull; perished rear tail gate rubber seal; under engine skirt fell off! Faulty passenger side headlamp washer; and now a faulty gearbox!



All requiring at least 2 visits to the dealership for repairs because there are no parts in the state other than air and oil filters! Yeah, of course they'd keep those! To cap it all off, they charge like wounded bulls for their "service". As unhappy as I was, I still decided to enquire about a trade in when the new C5 came out about 12 months after I bought the thing. Citroen know they are worth only 2 flat rocks and I was offered $20,000 less than I paid when I bought this French jalopie.



Prestige car my backside!



THe only compensation is that it drives well and is really comfortable and economical but without doubt the constant and continuing catalogue of manufacturer faults make it the worst car I have ever owned in over 35 years."
