    hi all

    i have a 2005 citron c4 coupe, it has a engine oil leek and as a result also needs the timing belt and fan belt replaced. I have been quoted €2000 for the repairs. Im not in a position to get the car fixed, so i was wondering if any one could tell me is it possible to sell the car, and where do i go. i understand that i will make a loss, and am will to take it. any recommendations would be appreciated.

    i quite like these cars, is it diesel?
    how bad is the leak, who has diagnosed the problem, mileage pls? I dont mean who, I mean has it been properly diagnosed? Colour?

    The price quoted seems too expensive to me.

    ball park figure, fan belt 10 to 50 euro
    timing belt 500 (out of my head)
    engine oil leak, depends where from.

    I suggest you detail the problems on here and ask for advice, there are plenty of helpful posters here. bump it now and agin to keep it on the first page.

    Regards, rugbyman
