Very useful thread! I've just bought a late 66 plate Citigo and because of this thread I had a good grope up around the wheelarch where the filler cap is fitted and found mud and flakey bits. Number one job when car gets here is a damn good jetwashing, drying, derusting and undersealing with Dinitrol. Thank you!! Would never have thought to look for this problem until it was too late. Adding VW rear wheelarch liners does seem to be a good idea.

Stopfordian I think?! Car due here Monday I hope. Work planned! Clean round filler cap under wheelarch and treat with antirust stuff and underseal, new front brakes, oil, all filters etc etc. Just looked at the prices of brake kits - £75 for Febi front discs and pads. Liking Skodas already!

Hello I'm new. Just put a deposit down on a Citigo Monte Carlo. Due to covid restrictions at the dealer I've been able to walk round it, peer through the windows and that's it. No test drive, no under bonnet, no internal access. But I'm brave, it's very local (covid again) and it's fairly cheap for the age and mileage. I'll post again when I realise the clutch is knackered and it needs a new engine :)
