Charles's 2.1 SD Manual (formerly Citroenxm's)

[Charles M]

Re-fitted and all working, although the conditions outside are so hideous, I've left all the trims 'til the weather improves.

[Eddie nuff]

Get back out there man, it's only a light breeze with the odd shower.

[Charles M]

As a life member of the southern slackers and idlers union, I invoke my right immemorial to call any weather involving water and wind as a hurricane, such right being marked by me making my third mug of tea and lighting the fire.

Charles,

Is this the S1 or S2 your Boot problem?? If S2 then a rusty part is a common thing on S2 cars...

[Charles M]

S2. The S.1 boot is almost perfect (sometimes you have to press down on the lid to make sure it is totally latched but no problems otherwise).

[Charles M]

All back in, with one screw left over. I know which, but I'll do it all again when the weather is more clement and the tailgate isn't dripping all over me.

[Dieselman]

Does it work properly now?

[Charles M]

Oh yes, no problems so far.

[CitroJim]

Good work Charles, especially having done it is that misty breeze we had yesterday

I must check mine now, having seen the state of yours...

[Charles M]

Just fitted some revelational technology which has transformed the car's illumination in the dark - yes, my new glasses have arrived. I feel like Helen Keller! With anti-glare coating I can make out everything, including pedestrians! (famous last words).

Tesco said it might be sixteen days, but the glasses took six, including Christmas. That's good.
