How do...

Hello, stumbled across this site more by accident than design really!
Names Chris, I'm 30 and a bus driver from Bristol thats been restoring cars (mainly Citroëns), buses and lorries for a fair few years.

My current project is an Ex-Badgerline Dennis Lance of 1993 vintage. No one liked them, no one at all, but they were always my fave drive in work, and this one was my ultimate favourite..

Welcome to you, docchevron - I hope you'll find this place to your liking.
Pull up a floorboard and sit down . . .

Brave man (restoring Citroens)!

I wish you luck with the Dennis Lance project, and may it bring you great pleasure.

Being a Citroen CX fan (Also called Chris.), I'd like to welcome you from the Sunny Isle of Anglesey. I hope you enjoy all that goes on here complete with the banter!

Thanks for the warm welcome!

There's a couple of CX's in our little group, a 22TRS and a GTi Turbo, but I'm more a BX man myself.. up to 9 of them at the moment..

How do I get a picture to display in thread instead of showing a link?

Open square bracket - 'I' 'M' 'G' - close square bracket
'the URL of the jpg'
Open square bracket - '/' 'I' 'M' 'G' - close square bracket

I had a 2.4 super which later, with the help of a good friend of mine, morphed into a 2.4 GTI.

I saw a silver GTI Turbo when I was in Poland in 2000 and almost brought it home except that I could never find the garage open!

I liked the BX as well and drove one for a time, it was typically Citroen quirky with the none self cancelling indicators. Some people used to hate that, but I got into the habit of automatically switching them off as my hands came back past the switch after the turn.

Maybe we should have a Citroen Forum!!
