Hi from Kent

[furryjen79]

To be honest I am now swaying more towards the diesel, altho the figures are coming out quite a bit more. The best offer I've had so far is £301 over 3 years with £2,000 deposit and £270 on the THP 150 but the dealer today said they would beat it!

The dealer I eventually went with Pentagon Oldham) got me to £275 per month on the DSport 110 e-HDI. That's with £200 part ex £1k deposit from me and £500 Citroen contribution. The dealer has been so great so I'm so glad I went with them even if I could have got my monthly payments down slightly online.

By the way I never thought I would buy a diesel as my preconceptions were that they were sluggish, dirty, noisey and generally not fun to drive but I take it all back! I love driving it, when you hit third gear you can feel the car wanting to go! It's great fun!

Any idea what 0-60 is on a diesel?

Lol...I know it's not as good as the petrol...Around 9.6 I read... Still under 10 seconds although I've yet to put it to the test ;-)

[Chris_Blue]

AAAH - around 7.1 secs on a THP

Not particularly fussed bout top end speed as you cant really do it that often if ever
but love acceleration

Interested to know what the DS3R 0-60 is as i dont think its any more

Anyway- going off the subject a bit altho starter was about THP

Lol well I'll spend those extra couple of seconds while you pull ahead thinking about what I'll spend my extra £165 I've saved on road tax and catch you up at the next lights!!! ;-)

I actually never drove a petrol just in case I liked it too much! My head said I should get the diesel!

[mattds3sport]

its roughly 6.3 i believe

[Rickzayne]

You may set off faster but once you hit limp mode I'll be crusing on by xD

0-60 on my 90HDi is 11.6 seconds i think xD

and the tax stays the same for the rest of its life.

The official figure from Citroen is 0-62 mph in 6.5 sec for the Racing

[Chris_Blue]

Yep- Racing is on my list after moving house

Mind you not that much extra acceleration for 6 Grand or so

Outstanding. Now comes the wait and trolling youtube for every DS3 vid ever made and pointing out DS3's that you see to friends "oh oh thats what I'm getting" Have fun you will have those keys in no time

Lol so true!!

Congratulations, what colour did you decide on?

[Lola]

Lol, I've been guilty of that for a while! I've also been trolling the forum looking for ideas to customise her

I went with white/black in the end as it was my original choice and I wouldn't have to wait too long.

Can't wait

1st great news you ordered it =D
2nd which person did you deal with at Oldham? I went to Oldham and it was one of the worst experiences ever the guy I had he got really aggressive with me cos he could only knock £600 off the car ended up going to another garage

[furryjen79]

Hi I dealt with Chris at Pentagon Oldham... he's been brilliant!
