In Darlington? Ive not seen that one.

I have seen a silver estate around the middlesbrough area and a black exclusive hatch too. Other than those ive not seen any for ages and ages.

Ah yes i know Ron, my dad is good friends with Ron. My dad used to service his cars when he was a Citroen specialist, he did used to have a red BX estate too didnt he. Though after my dad changed jobs they kept in touch.

Fantastic chap, he is wanting to move over to france at some point, as his daughter is out there with her family and he has his own house which is is renovating.

Very nice Xm it is too, one of the later S1s too isnt it. Black, black leather and all of the spec, LPG will make it cheap to run too.

he is great, i made him a couple of toy boxes for his grand kids, also gave him some spares including an infra red plip and reciever for his car he was realy chuffed that he can remote lock and deadlock now all he needs now is his cruse controle and speedo fixing, not sure if they are linked on an S1 as the speedo is mechanical ,not sure how the crues works, have you seen any of the classic bikes hes rebuilt?? :o

It uses a small transponder mounted on the spedometer drive gear to feed the cruise with speed pulses. It sounds like the gear/unit is duff.
