Due to a change in circumstance, we are selling our 62 Citigo elegance. I know the usual ways of selling, Freedom boards and eBay etc, but considering the car is nearly new, does anyone have any other suggestions?!?
Shame to see it go.

Ironically the spoilers do come in primer initially but it was a case of "right place, right time". I happened to purchase a Seat Mii spoiler brand new from a Seat Dealer that was part of a cancelled order. It was already sprayed black and I thought it would go well with the Citigos black stripes, so I bought it! Fitted in under 5mins with Tigerseal then left to set for a few hours.
To be fair it's a subtle spoiler as it doesn't extend too much beyond what is already there on the roof, but when sprayed black it compliments the tail end of the vehicle very well, as it blends nicely in with the black window glass surround.
I also picked up some rear parking sensors as part of the deal with the spoiler, but I think I'm going to sell those!

Thanks Jonny5ive, a positive comment at last!

...I think people are missing the point of this thread. I'm not saying I've done anything amazing. I just thought I'd share the fact that the Mii spoiler does fit in case any one had that question in future.
I tried to set up another thread about parts that fit the Citigo, Up and Mii but it got a bit off topic.

That's the one!
Here's mine...

Like I said, the weather has been rubbish and the car hasn't been clean for ages. Combine this with Christmas and I just haven't had chance to take pictures. However that being said I have some now, could someone tell me the quickest way to upload them? I haven't posted pictures on here for a while.
...and to all the doubters, why would I lie about fitting a spoiler? If you didn't know its virtually the same part number for all 3 vehicles therefore what I have done isn't exactly difficult. I just came by the genuine Black Mii spoiler and fitted it to a Citigo. The reason I posted early and without pictures is to let others know it could be done, as I thought it may be helpful.

Lol....bear with me, busiest time of the year too!

I run a Citigo for Driving instruction, one of the first to be used for this in the UK I believe!
Lovely little car and perfect for this. Don't worry about the stop/start aspect as this can be turned off as needed.
Avoid City safe, parking sensors and tinted windows as these are all things that can hinder the learning experience!

Sorry peeps. Non stop rain here...will get some ASAP!

Just fitted the black Vibora Negra Mii rear spoiler to my Silver Citigo!
No pics yet, but just wanted to confirm fit and the fact it looks awesome!
-
Ok...i can confirm that official VAG retro fit rear parking kit for citigo/up/mii has 4 sensors.
Factory fit has 3 sensors.
Just in case anyone needed to know in future!
-
I've noticed this too....I think it is a problem with some citigos and it should not be dismissed as incorrect use of the ventilation system.
Going to try a dehumidifier bag from amazon....will post results!
-
Bizarrely, whilst researching on the web I've seen Citigos with sensors mounted in the middle of the bumper and the lower bumper. Market variants?!?

Hello,
The Mii, Citigo and Up all have 3 parking sensors fitted as standard to the rear when ordered from new.
I'm looking into the official retrofit kit (same p/n for all 3 cars) but it apparently has 4 sensors! Is that correct? Will it work with PID? Do I get a de-activation switch?
Help please! :/
-
It's a brand new car, let it get a little dirty and it won't be so obvious!
-
...one other thing, I did read the article fully and understood what it said! Hence why I said "hope" rather than saying "they are absolutely making a vRS!"
-
It's interesting to see them toying with the idea of a sporty looking Mii, combine that with the turbo Up! means there is hope!
The Citigo is evolving beyond its intended purpose, if they have a market for a vRS they will make one. It's all about the bottom dollar not "Fabia" and " Octavia" ethics!

Seeing they are making a Mii FR it must give us hope for a Citigo vRS?
-
I think that for the sake of £40 you may as well just fix it properly with genuine parts. It's a virtually brand new car and I don't think sticking an £8 halfords mirror will be doing it justice. As much as it sucks, pay the £40 and retain a perfect oem look and fully working heated glass.
By the sounds of it, you will have nothing to stick the halfords repair glass to anyway, as they are designed to stick on top of a broken/shattered mirror.
Totally sucks you should have to pay anything. :(

Anyone else seen this?
Looks a bit funky!
-
I think the point was being missed..I said "get annoyed when they change the spec so early in production".
This is not limited to a steering wheel, the Citigo or Skoda. General observation about cars.
-
Have you driven in heavy rain or spray? It sounds like someone is taking a shower in the back seat.
Radio volume up!!!

MickA, I too find the non permanent PID a little annoying. I tend not to bother using it on short journeys due the the time taken to install and remove. Now...I'm sure people would say "but it takes a few seconds", but for short trips you just want to jump in the car and go.
I just have to stop being lazy I guess!
Where to sell Citigo?
in Škoda Citigo
