I have not had the Ulysses but owned the Citroen evasion both petrol and diesel versions. Same car as the Fiat.

Very good space wise and good load luggers.

I had a Peugeot turbo diesel van version several years ago. Fast, did a lot of miles and never put a foot wrong.


16VT and X1/9 1500

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

I had a Fiat Multipla 1.9 JTD a few years ago. Appreciating they are butt ugly to some, It was reliable, easy to work on, and remarkably versatile. Prices seem reasonable as well as its not deemed desireable by many!!

My dad has one and it's affectionately known as "The Family Fun Bus"!! laugh

click to enlarge

He bought it 18 months ago for £700 on eBay. Initially it had an electrical problem that kept draining the battery, but this turned out to be an easy fix as a dodgy connection somewhere. Other than that it's cost him nothing, just ticked over 125k miles and passed its mot first time last week!

Half the time my dad uses it as a van as all the seats are removable (you can see them stored in the garage in the photo).

The only problem is that it looks like, and is, a complete banger! But it's that bad, it's good!
