you could be right about the c5 and the lexia the c5 must really have one f##ked up electrical system ill still try mine on a c5 if i get a chance. my pp2000 has had no issues yet.
i wonder how good it would have been if citroen gave the xsara picasso hydropneumatic suspension i had one of them working on the pp2000 then i got a wee drive the seats in them thing are better than most sofas

I think some C4 Picassos, along with the 405 Mi16x4 have the hydropneumatic suspension on the rear.

C2 Pluriel. The worlds most useless convertible. When it rains you need to go back home to get your pillars back on.
But at least Citroen were trying something new :)

It could work though, it would make sense if they sold it in a country where it wasn't raining almost all the time (which doesn't include Croatia this month either...)

I could see it being OK for the summertime, then come the autumn rains you can't find the roof arches in the loft!

Besides, the whole point of a convertible is being able to put the roof up when you park somewhere.

my cousin she owns a c3 pluriel has had it since new about 5 years now and done 90k miles in it, and its gave her no trouble apart from the door key jamming in the frost which was covered under warranty, thats not bad for what feels like a cheaply made car. It really feels sh*t inside, the seats are rock solid, and everything feels recycled pound shop cheap.

as for the roof, the middle bit can come down quickly and it covers the back window, thats ok for getting back up if it rains fast. If you want the full convertable you need to read the manual because its not qucik, you put the fabric bit back, take the back window out, store it in the boot, then the pillars come off and you put them in the house. I had to come round that day to take it down she couldnt figure it out, and that was the only time it got used. Even then its not that great you get the wind in your hair, but its still a very slow and not enjoyable to drive.
