DS3 to get new 3-cylinder 'PureTech' engine... ...

[SLC]

Also ; I note that a DS3 1.4 EGS 5-speed (paddle shift - 95hp) box is available in Europe, Australia, Singapore, etc... but not in the UK??? Strange we don't have it in the UK. I guess there's a reason?

There's only two versions of DS3 available in Australia: a DStyle (1.6 VTi with 4sp auto) and DSport (THP155 with 6sp man). That's it, sadly.

How long does zero road tax last for then?

Hi Chris - forever, or until the govt. changes the rules and we're all paying road tolls

If you do 10k in a year you could save £126.72. And have a weedy 1.2l engine.

Yeah... I'll stick with the extra couple £100 I'm paying each year..

According to reports, Citroen Australia is doing away with the old 4-speed auto 'down under' which has been withdrawn & is no longer available to order from new. It has been replaced with the 1.4 EGS DStyle which has the paddles on the steering wheel. The good news is that the car now includes quite a bit more kit than the outgoing 1.6 auto. The THP155 is still available of course. There is a post on here somewhere from a guy living in Oz who wanted to buy the 1.6 auto for his wife - but was told only the 1.4 EGS is available now.
