  • Another DS3 for me

    if anyone has been following my post about the coolant loss and pinking will no that i was looking to return my car. citroen have agreed to give me a like for like car but because it's only 7 months old and covered 4000 miles they are giving me a new car. YAAAAAA

    its to be fitted will be the new 165thp but cant find out much about the spec of the engine did see someone on here though it might be a newer engine. what i have noticed is that its a start/stop.

    hopefully i should also get the radio upgraded to sat-nav just want to make sure you still get bluetooth with it still. have been told its about an 8 week lead time although not holding my breath on that lol

    Just have to pic a colour love the black when it clean but swirls very easy temped to go for either ruby red or whisper purple to be different

    Cheers

        Any dark colour swirls easily even the whisper pu role will swirl easily if it's anything like the dark purple honda I had years ago lovely colour as is is easy to keep clean but shows swirls & scratches easily

          Just got my new Techno. I picked the ruby red and I think it looks fantastic. When the light catches it, it really looks great.

          Regards Tbart.

                      Doing a bit off research and would think the new engine will be the same as the new 508 possibly

                      http://www.9gear.info/2014/10/new-pe...165-s-4dr.html

                      looking at it it seem that the outlet for the turbo is more towards the front which would make me think that the intercooler could be moving infront of the rad and not beside it.
                      this all could be wishful thinking tho.

                        If you look at the whole PSA product line you see that even in the 150/155 engine the turbo outlet was oriented both directions depending on the cars packaging requirements. So would not get your hopes up to much for a change.

                            @cyclone just wishful thinking lol, would have been good as it would have been easier to upgrade.

                            @den2712 you car looks brillant still havnt desided between that and the red
