Did your C6 come with fitted mats? Mine didn't, Citroën Slough told me only 'Exclusive' spec cars do. Although one 'Exclusive' owner I know didn't get them in his car either. Anyway, if you are looking for a set and want to avoid Citroën's prices I bought a set of these spurious ones on eBay. For the money you can't complain. They are not Axminster, nor Wilton, merely some nylon pile but they are well finished and fit immaculately in the front, a tiny bit too small perhaps in the back. As they are available only in black it matches perfectly with the existing black trim - my missus didn't even know I'd put them in 'till I pointed them out. Promptly delivery by Fedex. I can certainly recommend them. At this price they are disposable. Link : - Click Here - |

My car has fully fitted, matching mats in the front, but the rears are a bit small so maybe are the same ones Nice link though for anyone else requiring a set |

Optional mats on a £40K car, otherwise put a hole in your carpet after a year or so! I suspect they were fitted originally but were looking a bit tired and were taken out pre-sale. Dealer price I was quoted was 129 EUR. It would be interesting to hear from any owners who bought new, though, to see if they were standard fit on Exclusive. |

My C6 Exclusive didn't come with mats so I bought a set from - Click Here - in black with beige trim to match the interior. I can highly recommend them. | ||

My C6 Exclusive came with front mats, but none in the rear. I too bought a set from Ebay to put over the original front mats and offer some protection in the rear. | ||

My Exclusive didn't come with any mats but I work in aircraft maintenance so I made up cardboard templates to an exact fit and for the rear I copied the example of the Xsara Picasso's mat and did a full width one. All made up from some obsolete, but new, airline carpet and professionally overlocked. Even had a favourable comment from the 'Consultant Technician' at my local Stealership. Pete. |

Very Cleverman, I'm 2nd in the queue for a set. I like the idea of one single mat across the rear. Also do yours have the holes for the front fastening clips. PM with a price? |

I too bought a set from Ebay , look and quality is Ok. But I like that the edges are folded up on the "original". Put 2 pictures up in the image gallery, orginal is grey and ebay is sand. Link below " My C6" |

Hi, I bought bought black rubber mats on E bay from carmat001 for £16.99, they fit perfect on the C6 and i just cut a small hole to fit the front nipples to hold them in place,, great for my mucky wet passengers. B |

On the mats front I ordered a set from Cyberspares (Rbimac 09's) recommendation and have to say I'm extremely pleased. The receivers for the floor studs on the front mats matched perfectly and I also opted for an embroidered text option which is tastefully done. Regards, Phil C. |

Ped, Apologies for delay. The weather didn't allow reasonable photos to be taken. The carpet chosen was the deepest pile they offer. Only the best for herself you understand. Regards, Phil C. |
