As most of you know I work nowadays for a VW dealer in burton upon trent, selling new and used veeedubs, and generally there damn good motors if a little bit on the pricey side but the quality is very good.
Today ive been down at VW/Audi Group UK at milton keynes (the home of the roudabout!) for a briefing on the new Jetta (golf with a boot) and new Fox (lupo replacement), As usual there were salesstaff aplenty of all walks of life and ages, one of the guys in my "team" worked for Citroen for over 20 years, from the mid seventies onwards, of course I asked him about his time with the our favourate car!
What a great car he said

, the diesel was a fantastic seller and outsold everything else in the range, and bx diesels were twice as popular as petrols, he said they would charge £500-£1000 over "book retail" price

for used (diesel) estates and they always sold no problem as did the hatchback.
How times change!
