Arrrgh, just been offered one free - gonna pic it up tonight...
It's an '86 954cc with MOT till August and Taxed till end Feb. Just needs a clutch.
I don't really want it, but these are getting rare now, and I don't want to see it scrapped, so if anybody wants it - COME AND GET IT! It's free!

Expensive bargain warning!***Expensive bargain warning!***Expensive bargain warning!***Expensive bargain warning!
Clutch on Citroen Visa = engine out, so a long weekends work at home or around £400 at the garage, hence it's going free!

602cc was never used in the visa, they did it 'em with a bored out version - a whopping 652cc complete with electronic ignition! WOW!
Some bods have fitted these lumps in to 2cv's, Dyane's etc over the years with varying degrees of success!

sounds horrendous! I dare say driving enjoyment would not be much affected by a burned out clutch however.

'Ere, 'ere!! There's very few visa's left on the road these days, although most of the front end panels are interchangable with the C15 van.... Someone out there must be able to re-home it

Does it drive ?? if it moves its worth picking up, I didn't go and get it. Do you want it? I can give you the guys number. It runs and drives, but the clutch slips in 3 and 4th apparently. It's in Lakenham, South of Norwich.

Been chatting to the owner of the Citroen. Turns out he's a top chap and perfect Retro-Ride material.
He is a rear engine nut and two very nice cars, which I hope to go see at the weekend.
He has a G-plate Skoda Rapid 136 with genuine 15000 miles from new!
And an imp with "Janspeed manifold, big 'bike silencer, electronic ignition, plus lowered by about 4 inches all round". Sounds bloody cool!
When I told him I used to have a hydraulic Skoda, he said "ah, are you Chris Skoda Boy?" Good to know I touched so many people with that car!

Those Visas must be about as heavy as a bag of Monster Munch. Imagine getting it, chopping out the rear floorpan and mid-mounting a Pug 605 24v V6 onto a Renault 25 transaxle in there. Could make a bulkhead behind the driver to keep the noise down etc. Quality.
