Thank you struth. Been a bit of a shambles with the hospital and the ambulance service but that’s another story. Appreciate the kind comment.
as for the car some know I am a Citroen nut but I do know they not perfect but this car been the best I’ve ever had. This is my 6th car all been Citroens of course I’ll always have a soft spot for my first car but Citroen has really upped their game the last few years.
My late brother 2 months before he passed away back in 2013 was on his 7th car alao Motability car that was a C4 1.6eHDi 115 Exclusive EGS6 which was a nice car even though o my got to drive it for 2 months but this C4 I got now I think he would have loved it. It’s come a long way. Drives lovely the EAT8 box so smooth. The 155 gives a great punch of power when you need it. Shame the 155 is no more due to emissions getting stricter.
Now according to figures the 1.2 136 Self Charging Hybrid 6 speed dual clutch automatic that is going on the C4 from this month is suppose to be just as quick. AP hasn’t been released yet though but still even if it’s still the same as the 1.2 130 EAT8 Max it costs more than what I paid for this 155 in 2021.
Spec Wise between the Max and my Shine Plus
Gains
Heated Steering Wheel as standard on the Auto (I use a steering ball anyway so not really a again for me)
The Touchscreen Software like in the C5 X which consists of wireless CarPlay and Android Auto, other the air updates to the Sat Nav and Firmeware, better graphics and a Shark Fin Aerial
Loses
well obviously the 155 lol
Leather Interior. Can’t even get it as an Option on the Max only on the fuel electric ë-series model
Highway Assist
Wireless Phone Charger
Subwoofer
and one little thing I don’t like Citroen for they no longer wrap the front A Pillars anymore only if you pay £300 for a black roof. I’m my option I think it makes the car that bit nicer but that just my preference some may like it all coloured.
some of that kit my 155 has is standard on the ë-series fully electric which in Nil AP at the moment which is a great deal for someone who wants to go fully electric.
Did I say I was a Citroën Nut lol
looking forward to the nice weather again to go down Somerset hopefully North Devon as well. Obviously lucky to have Brecon Beacons on my door step too. Hope my mam will be well enough to come out with me. Sad seeing her looking frail I live with her so seeing the difference in her is upsetting but hope she improves soon.
