2005 CITROËN C4 VTS

KEY FACTS

• Fastidiously maintained and typically reliable, this C4 VTS offers well-equipped daily driver qualities with sprightly performance.
• The VTS was sold with a 130kW / 174bhp 2.0-litre inline-four motor paired with a five-speed manual transmission.
• This two-owner car boasts a comprehensive service history including receipts.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Purchased with optional full glass panoramic moonroof, full leather interior with heated front seats and bi-directional xenon headlights with self-levelling.
• Maintained in original factory specification, with the exception of a set of Koni sport suspension, which was installed in 2017.
• Sold with original service booklet stamped from new and complete service history including receipts for all parts and services from new, as well as a Haynes Citroën C4 owner’s workshop manual and tool kit within the spare wheel and tyre.

CONDITION

• The bodywork and exterior trim has been kept in very good order. There is a small dent on the upper pillar of the rear quarter panel.
• The wheels have all been coated in dark grey metallic plasti-dip, and while there are a few nicks in the coating, the wheels underneath are pristine – and the next owner could easily remove the plasti-dip finish if they wish.
• Paintwork is thought to be all original and is in excellent condition. There are some small scratches under the front spoiler along with minor chips on the bumper.
• Inside, the C4 has been maintained in original condition. The full leather interior has aged gracefully and the trim looks smart overall, as do the roof and floor linings. The seat covers are mainly in very good order, though there is a split in the stitching on the driver’s seat.
• The car has been very well maintained and has known mechanical or electrical faults.

SERVICE HISTORY

• John Novak Automotive Repairs carried out the car’s most recent service in April 2021 at 129,460 km. A full service was performed, including new engine oil, plus replacement oil, air, and cabin pollen filters, and a top-up of all other fluids.
• A routine service was also carried out in September 2020. The cam belt was last changed August 2013.
• In 2017, the owner removed the factory suspension and installed a full set of Koni sport shock absorbers.
• Other work in recent years includes new front lower and rear control arms and bushings, new engine mounts, new clutch and other general maintenance, with receipts included in the sale for all work.
