Over the years, Citroen has come up with more than a few quirky ideas. The second car it produced, the 1922 Type C 5HP, became known as the ‘petit citron' (little lemon) because of its small size and the yellow paint colour you could order it in. Since then, there has been the Citroen Picasso, taking inspiration from Pablo Picasso's use of shape. The Citroen DS 19 was the vehicle of choice for the French President Charles de Gaulle, who survived an assassination attempt in 1962 thanks to the car's superior suspension system, allowing his chauffeur to drive away after two of the tyres were shot.
Manufactured between 1997 and 2006, the Citroen Xsara is a small hatchback ideal for drivers with a limited budget. An MPV version - the Xsara Picasso - was launched in 1999. The Xsara hatchback has a decent amount of interior space and is cheap to run, delivering between 33 and 62 mpg, though poor reliability ensures regular trips to the garage. Worn brakes and clogged radiators are common, and you should also keep an eye out for clutch problems.
There are many types of car restoration, some requiring more time, expertise, and money than others. Ultimately, the extent of the work required depends on the condition and age of the car. Some vehicles may only need attention in certain areas, such as car paint restoration or car seat restoration.
However, a more complex job may involve rebuilding an engine or stripping an entire vehicle down to the metal underneath and restoring all the components and body parts. The aim is to get the car looking and driving as well as it did when it was new.
If you want to give new life to a classic car, try to find a specialist classic car restorer who is knowledgeable about the make and model you have. A classic car restoration is a big and costly project, so finding the right mechanic is a must.
