why on earth would you take a 13 year old car to a main dealer for repair estimatemidge406 said:
It’s a 2008 Citroen C5. I think around 80,000 miles on the clock.walwyn1978 said:Also, how old is it, how many miles on it and how much was paid? If it’s a 1k dealer sale that’s not the same expectation as a 20k dealer sale….
the receipt that you have posted with a total repair cost of £4.400.00 is from Sherwood motor group who are Citroen main dealers in the north east
the car is an old French car with a weird suspension system and the main dealers have just quoted for every part to rebuild the suspension regardless of whether it is faulty or not
you need to find a local Citroen specialist to look at the car rather than a main dealer0
