LOL, they're not that bad. The camera flash going off did it no favors, has made them look lighter and washed out

Wow, a lot of fun to be had for less than a grand.

Shame its Gold mind....no car should be painted gold IMO....ever

Nice buy.

Unless it grenades itself in a huge way next week then that is a very very good buy IMO.

That is really good VFM, and they don't seem to be as ugly as I remember them now!

52k miles for £930???

Does it really have 170bhp too?

Fantastic bargain, I was sooo close to getting a 5 door Xsara as my first car, but went with my Cordoba for £1170 instead, you're making me wish I had some more power!!

This thread is making me want one now, well the VTR, insurance might be a bit much on the VTS. Very nice bargain indeed!

Great buy!

Baby Jesus did indeed cry when he saw the interior though

Its a French thing, although its not much of a problem when your sitting in it. Still it makes mine look almost bearable.

I'd have an ugly comfy seat over a "good looking" uncomfortable seat any day of the week.

The dials are a bit odd with the speedo/revs being white backed and the rest in black. I thought mine were aftermarket, but it appears not after some research.
