I moved the car round to the front of the house and noticed an ominous knocking from the rear left suspension. Given I had kerbed the car last weekend I suspect I have damaged part of the suspension which is a bit fragile as it is a different set up than on your usual 940. My wife has her new 850 estate and wouldn't part with it so without hesitation I sparked up the 1979 244 DL Saloon known as Maddy which I bought in January. Maddy ate the 400 miles no problem at all and was a comfortable if slightly noisy motoway cruiser bumbling along at 70mph quite happily even though the timing is a bit out. very happy with the performance indeed and she only drank fifty quids worth of V-Power as well which is less than the 940 drinks on the same journey __________________ 1998 S90 manual 2002 C70 Convertible 2.4 T5 Auto 1984 Citroen CX21
