I’ve not seen it, just a photograph
It’s the same colour
If it is, it’s moved to the outskirts of Wakefield

I found out a few days ago, that the Citigo belongs to a Nurse that I know
We’ve just bought a 2015 low mileage Citigo for my two kids to use, I’ll post some photos soon, what a cracking little car!

Once again, the point about my swapping/PX-ing my Kodiaq for an automatic has arisen
(& she'll sell her Q3!)
I had a think, & perhaps a FreeLander2 fits the bill
I joined the FL2 forum after a bit of a browse, rather oddly, a couple of members seem to suggest that I keep the Kodiaq, as it's a better all round car that a FL2
https://www.freel2.com/forum/index.php
I'm sure I could live with the smaller cabin/lower MPG? (I'd still want a diesel; the Td4)
Heck!!, I lived with a 110CSW (Td5) as a daily-driver (& also a 300Tdi Hard-Top, a few years before that)
IF, I do get one, I want a green one
This colour

True, it’s a modern(ish) Land Rover….
However, after my recent DPF, & glowplug, issues with Kodiaq…..

Saturday 27th
As we were too early to check in, for our weekend at the Midland Hotel, we had a potter about locally, up to Hest Bank first, then down towards Heysham & Overton
I knew that the tides would be wrong, for a meander over to Sunderland Point, but it's just one of those places that need to be visited, as it's a tidal-road
Looking south-west towards Sunderland
As I turned round to walk back to the car
This sign (2 of them) are on the crest of the road, in the previous image
Scroll down to Sunderland Point; https://wetroads.co.uk/lancashire.htm

As a counterpoint, my old 50th Anniversary, in October 2004, at the same location

Whilst driving through Castleford this morning, l followed an usual specification Superb
It was a ‘first generation’ on a ‘11 plate’
A saloon, Tfsi(?), but…… a 4x4!!!
I’ve seen a Passat saloon as a ‘4-Motion’ (someone owned one not too far from where we live), but never - knowingly- a Superb saloon!!!

Isn't that a second gen? yea they made a 4x4 in higher specs.
I'd like a 3.6 V6!
