I wonder if by any chance there is somebody in the Wirral with experience of these models that I can contact re a problem with my car?

I'm more a Peugeot man, but the mechanics are the same between Pugs and Citroen. What's the problem? And have you had a browse here:

Almost every car issue has been discussed and documented.

Hi Gibbo,the problem is with the electric roof,and it seems to be common to almost all of these cars.There's a company in Shropshire I believe who appear to be wizard with this fault,but my pension won't stretch to a solution there at the moment,so hence my post...I'll have a look now at the link you posted,thank you for your help.
