Hi Topcat

I have some recovered Exclusive badges somewhere in the heap.
May take me a while to find them.
Citroen only ever fitted these badges to the front wings ex factory.
The ones on the tailgate are owner/dealer retro fits.

hi johnxmexclusive, thanks for taking an interest in my search for badges , and the info you sent. it would be great if you could find me two exclusive badges to replace the missing ones on the car. if you find them perhaps you could leave a message on here and then i will be able to arrange payment and a postage if that is ok. kind regards tony cheetham.

hi kit , thanks for your response for my sump search. this is a bit difficult to describe but here goes.2.1 turbo diesel 1995. the engine is fitted with an aircon compressor bolted to the brackets cast into the sump body, above which is a rather large casting/forging bolted to the cylinder block and carrying the alternator. the engine is fitted with an auxilary drive belt from crank pulley, alternator, compressor,tensioner pulleys. hydraulic pump, and is flat with approx 5 ribs on the underside. the important bit is the compressor will not fit with the early sump because of the alternator mounting bracket, so it must be the later sump. i am new to this forum, and hving some little difficulty navigating my way around, so please forgive me if i get into the wrong place from time to time etc. i cannot find your details yet so where do you live if that is not an incorrect question to ask. thank you again for your interest in my problem. kind regards tony cheetham.

Hi TC, You may be in luck, I bought this engine from a breaker and it arrived on a pallet from Scotland so I have no information about the donor car. However it is a slightly later engine than those fitted to my two 95 cars. Neither of my cars has aircon but this spare engine came with a compressor mounted on a dam great bracket that also carried the alternator and HP pump, located level with the rocker box. I don't remember the bracket bolting to the sump, but it is two years since I stripped it so I will have a look tomorrow. I am based in Pembrokeshire, so if the sump is any good for you it will be a courier, but should be only £12, assuming you are on UK mainland.

Hi Tc,
I had a look on Sunday, I now realised I have more problems than I thought. The sump I have spare is a cast alloy sump with 4 bosses on it to carry the mounting bracket. The sad thing is, I have been getting grief for two years for having an engine sat in the drive. My reason for keeping it was so that I had a spare sump in case mine got damaged, although I knew full well that the sumps on both my cars were steel! So, if you want it you can have it for the cost of shipping, although I am so busy at work it will be the end of the month before I can separate it from the block.

hi kit, thanks for your endevours on my behalf. the cast ally sumps have 4 lugs on them for mounting the aircon compressor, above this is the mounting bracket casting/forging which is bolted on to the crankcase, this carries the alternator and above which is the hydraulic pump. if your engine block has the casting/forging fitted to it, it must mean that it is the correct sump that we are looking for.perhaps engines without the aircon facility were fitted with steel sumps, i have not come across these as yet it is of great concern to me that i am putting you to such inconvenience etc, especialy when you are so busy. i do not have that problem having long been pensioned off and in my latter years. you say you are in pembrokeshire, is that in wales, can you give a post code. i am near preston lancs PR4 6AZ. incidently the forum site has been offline for a day or two. i thought i had lost you when it came back again tonight. looking forwards to hearing from you again soon, but pleas remember there is no haste, i can wait. kind regards TC.
