You spelling Citroen, "Citreon"?

Amazing how many people do that. In fact sometimes it brings up new results in the search!

When i search on ebay i always use BX*

By using the *wildcard you can pick up anything like BX16 or BXGTi or even just plain BX etc etc

I always search for Citr**n BX.

That way it brings up cars/items that are spelt correctly and those that are Citreon :)
