Just seen my first OK - reserving judgement!

[Sparkle]

Picked my son up from cricket practice yesterday and when I parked up I spotted an OK DS3. The black and white roof combo looked good - but am reserving my thoughts on the gold wing mirrors, leafy pattern on the roof and the gold interior. In my teenagers words - "glad you didn't get one of them, wouldn't be seen dead in it" - perhaps thats one way of getting out of being a taxi service! - Orla Kiely - pimp my DS3!!!

Hannah and I saw one a few weeks ago in West London Citroen, all black with the leaves on the roof, looked OK tbh, seen worse cars.

[Boss Hogg]

Currently considering one of them, and we're in the same boat of being undecided. Leather interior is excellent though.

[AndyG]

I dont mind them in the right colour combo they look ok tbh

[Bigfeet]

Theres a heap of them left, CUK is trying to get us dealers to registered them as demos in order to clear the stocks.

[John S]

Should be some damn good deals to be had then

[AndyG]

How does that work biggie, do they offer them to you cheaper or that?

[Boss Hogg]

Bigfeet, is there likely to be a deal done on them then do you think?

Seen a couple of grey ones online at around £14,500/15,000 which look like ex-demos. Either one of those or a White I think is where we are going to end up

I've just gettin mine which is a white one. had 22 mile on clock when i got it and paid 15500 inc gap, and couple extras. I'm over the moon with it. You get some great extras

Saw a white/orange on Thursday. The exterior was alright but the interior was a bit messy and the brown dash imo was a big no. Not a nice brown.

No, the dash is a bit of a disaster but can easily be sorted. I'm taking mine back next week to have dash changed and chrome trims on the doors.

I must say when I first saw the DS3 OK I thought WTF ! but after driving one and putting it with the others it looks great, different and stands out.
It comes with many extras and at a decent price being a special it should have good residule value too.
I have heard that citroen can't get rid of them but they are like that with most big batches of cars to be fair, most models are made at a steady rate and flow nicely through the factory and to their owners but when a special version is built, they make quite a few at once and they sit there for a while as the flow isnt as fast.
I've worked for Nissan, Citroen, Fiat, Suzuki, Honda and a little of VW. they all have diferent ways of working and every once in a while have cars sitting around for a bit.

I bet they still have a batch of C3 Pluriels sitting about somewhere lol !
Vw had a load of sandy gold cars sitting about when I was there.

And who would buy a brown special eddition car?

I think the Orla kiely DS3 has character and style and though it is not everyones cup of tea, it is a liked combo and will sell.

My brother once bought a Snowboard with a picture of a steaming turd on it ! said it looked cool....

[x6411]

What engines are available with the OK's?

They're not my cuppa tea but I'm just curious

Not doubting the drive.......... it is after all a DS3 and the drive is superb.
Just airing an opinion that the interior looks messy with multi coloured head rests/carpets and the kack brown dash in the one I saw.
I'm not surprised that they are not selling well and think that Citroen should have gone with the more stylish, subtle YSL.
Having said that, each to his/her own. And I traded my Pluriel for the DS3, Pluriel sold in 3 days so they sell, the buyer came fom France to buy!

And as the old saying goes................................you can't polish a turd!

[Boss Hogg]

Not a fan of the brown dash, but like the cream one and I think the headrests are quirky and look good
