I would have snapped it up if he hadn't. Citroen Pluriel (based off the C3) is my sisters car - think they got the honour of "Quickest/hardest depreciating car" in the UK - I call it the Pleurisy, viral peice of crap that it is. Definitely bought because it looks quirky and my sister believes herself to be "different". Golf is mums - even that's too large for her - manages to keep sideswiping posts, poles, gutters and parked cars, thus the garage spot all to herself.All up, I've got my dad to thank for snapping up the Octavia - if he hadn't, I would have (the price was that good) and I'd have never bought the Ford, never been looking for info on them and never found the forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Words like "great deal", "value for money" "sensible choice" etc get said far too often.Calder was cancelled :( - no chance to let the beast spread it's wings tonight. Hopefully the meet at the end of the month will go ahead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
