Saved the best  (of the worst) to last.
The most costly and the most disappointing car I've ever owned - stunning to look at but disappointment in the end. I was happy to see the back of it. This is the best feature of the car, incidently.

My favourite Cit - sure it had hydraulic leak (and some say it's ugly) but by far the best I've had.

Welcome. Most discussion now happens in Facebook group 'Fastfrogs'. Also try 'Citroen, Peugeot & Renault buy/sell/swap and natter NZ' for a wider group and to try find any parts you might need, though buying things from UK/EU is often the easiest way.

Hi,

I'm Nigel and live in Auckland. I've been car crazy for a while now so excuse the excitement at times.

Have a had a couple of Renault's so aware of the French quirks but have just purchased a 205. It needs a lot of work so If anyone has any bits please let me know.

Cheers,
Nigel

Hi,
I had owned a few Citroens, intrigued by French cars but currently own none.
I hope I have a better sense than getting back into the scene but I never learn.
Cheers
Sam

How did you go about the importation process from Oz?  Is it difficult to up spec to the "Lux" pack?

Cost me about $2,000 for freight from Australia, I had a spare motor in the back and a few other bits.

I got a good one, as in the paint is nice, no chips and mostly original. Its the Liquid Yellow colour that sold me.

The Lux interior I have lifted from a well specked 2nd "parts car" that I got off Trade-Me.

My recommendation would be to start with a good Clio RS, a 172 or 182 that has been looked after will only go up in value from this point. Enjoy that for a while and if you want to go faster save for a Megane 3 RS, they are an absolute weapon and a nicer drive than the older RS225/R26. Have driven many and owned several now.
