Hello together, I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Frank, I’m 23 years old and I’ve been living in my own apartment for a month. I moved here to be closer to my job. I work as an industrial clerk. I haven’t needed a car for 5 years. My job is unfortunately very remote in the Indu area. With public transport you can only get there very badly. And 12 km on foot?, well. I honestly don’t know how to afford it. Actually, my budget doesn’t allow a car: rent (60m2): 275€ cold additional costs+electricity: 200€ food+house funds: 200€ KLeitung: 25€ Phone/Ferneben+GEZ: 65€ Vers. (House Council, BU, accident): 100€ Additional pension: 25€ Furniture/electric (saving): 50€ Power 940€, so 160€ stay for a car. Can I drive a car for that? According to the car magazine, the monthly maintenance costs are around 300€ even for a C1. . How do you all do that? I mean 110€ net is actually a good income. Can you help me there? Greetings Frank

Again typical car picture –> Eleven cars in operation test
Again typical of the Autobled is an article in the new Auttobled, ok I don’t know what exactly is in the article in the magazine, but the online presentation of the article writes volumes again:http://www.autobild.de/current/reportagen/artikel.php?artikel_id=12557 The text and the first photo suffice me completely to represent the impartiality of the autobled testers. Especially the C4 Picasso (picture) or the C4 which already in the cheapest executions the control of BC and Navi complete I think the testers were sitting in the cars for the first time! How realistic!!!! Cu Meg allows you to use the steering wheel… Well ok that is certainly too cumbersome again… best example from the text: Switching off the traffic radio = Pug 207 with RT3 = 23.3sec min and 74,5sec max!!!!!!!!! Hello why is there the TA button on the front panel??? I think the testers sat for the first time in the corresponding cars! How realistic!!!! Cu Meg

Help, winter’s coming!
Good morning dear community! It’s getting cold again in Germany… and soon it has to be scratched again But I want to come through the winter a little better this year than last… just… what to do? I had thought about a heater, but unfortunately I only drive about 15 km to work. That would give up the battery quite quickly. What else can you do? I can’t afford to build my own garage.

maturity problem?
Moin, yesterday I painted my brake calipers black out of boredom so that they don’t look so gammelig anymore. well and when I had bolted the wheels on again and drove the following thing was obvious to me….. Man hears such a kind of WUMMER CLOCK when you drive. It just makes wooowooowooow. not very loud but you can hear it! I don’t know if that was the case before painting. because I mostly drive on radio and there I didn’t notice that! From painting can’t the noise come, can it? I tightened the wheels properly again! It’s 100% not! But I noticed that the tyres already have a light “saw tooth”, especially at the rear of the axle! And since I put the summer wheels on it (since mid-April) I have driven on these about 6000 km!(The tyres were changed when delivery was possible!) Is the noise on the saw tooth? or does it come from somewhere else? Did any of you ever have something similar?

Processing a disaster at Citroen
Hi! Are there any other users here in the forum who criticize the interior processing of their Citroens? If Citroen already demands premium prices for his van, they should also deliver premium quality! I criticize the following points that have already occurred with my C8. If I reach the door, a plastic part crunches At high speed on the highway, a plastic flap is removable in the trunk The entire software is extremely flawed The rails d the rear seats are not sufficiently strongly dimensioned in my opinion, and can easily be bent. The Navi display (but I also noticed in the C5) regaiter delayed in the event of great cold. The speech recognition doesn’t understand me The seat belts do not adjust automatically in height, that can already be the over 20 years old Volvo 760 of my brother. mfg franz

Sale Citroen ?
Hello together, I have a question: I really like the new C4 Grande Picasso very well and also the price is ok. What deters me is the following: a friend once told me in conversation about cars that he would never again buy a Frenchman. His must have cost with almost full equipment times again around the 40,000 Euro and when there was with the thought of the new purchase at the dealer, he was offered 16,000 Euro for then I believe 3 years old car and since then he has a generally bad opinion about French cars. Yesterday I was allowed to ride in a well-equipped C6 and found out that these cars are however nothing bad. Therefore I wanted to ask here about the experiences with the resale value after about 2-3 years.

Suv-Test : C-Crosser wins the race against Audi and Co.
Hello dear Citroën forum ! I bought the car-block today, because the C-crosser against Volvo XC90 ; Audi Q7 ; Fiat Sedici ; Lada Niva and Range Rover Sport had to compete. When I hit the side, I wondered : The C4 Picasso was in 1st place, although he was still in 3rd place before a few weeks. In the SUV – test there were the following places: 1st place : C-crosser 19 points 2nd place : Audi Q7 18.5 points 3rd place : Land Rover 16.5 points 4th place : Volvo 16.5 points 5th place : Fiat 1 5.5 points 6th place : Lada 9 points Conclusion: The soccer god is a Frenchman. The Citroën has 19 hits in the final.His strengths lie in the division of space and defence – he has no real weaknesses.

Zero leasing contract
Hi, I have a question for the people who approached the zero leasing action, because I got the C2 VTS and now have a question about the leasing agreement. When I looked at the leasing agreement at home again in peace, I had to find out that under point 8.6 a purchase of the vehicle after the lease agreement was concluded by the lessee is excluded. A question with my friend has resulted that neither the bank nor the dealership anything against it. at if I want to take over the car at the end of the contract to the residual value. Can I rely on something like this or should I have it confirmed in writing again, would be illogical if Citroen thereby does not cause any disadvantages to the customer compared to the cash purchase and then in the end you can’t even take over the car. Do your contracts look the same, or is there perhaps something else with you??
