Made for GB? |

There are no major differences between the French and British versions. By the way, the C6 debuted in UK in March 2006, so first UK model year should be 2006 |

The first official C6s were on an 06 plate, indeed, but this seems to be a 55 plate, which makes me think it might be pre-series. @UKBoy205 is there a clear view of the plate? Episode itself aired March 2006. -- Last edit: 2024-11-25 23:45:06 |

Very very rare here - no-one bought them, so pretty well all the UK examples ended up on Citroen's fleet or punted out to lease/rental firms at big discounts. |

But perversely very common on TV as product placement as Citroen had to do something with all the ones they registered to themselves. ![]() -- Last edit: 2024-11-25 23:57:21 |

I pass one of these every time I go to work. Then again, it's the only one I positively recall seeing in the flesh. |

So like I thought a very early press car, registered 4 months before launch. If I remember well the cars used for the press launch were all RO06 plates (like /vehicle_875490-Citro%C3%ABn-C6-2006.html), so after this car. |

I used to see a very similar one occasionally in my area, but it vanished in the last couple of years. I saw some others, mostly when it was current/recent, but it has always been very rare. |

I used to see one as well just behind my house for a while years ago, in a wonderful red paint. A great comfortable car for long journeys, though not the most reliable. For me it lacked a hatchback and an estate variant, and perhaps a more balanded styling, but in the 2000s any non-premium executive car was a poor seller, as it was also the XM in the second part of its career -- Last edit: 2024-11-26 00:06:16 |

There's actually one in New York on NY plates too. It can be found on PM. There's another one at the Lane Motor Museum in TN as well. |

I've seen one in Melbourne, I know of a few only though one of the FB groups I'm in. |
