Citroën C-Crosser (2007 - 2012) 2.2 HDi VTR Plus 5d (2010/60) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Actually done my research and bought the car that fitted my needs and budget. Not just a badge buyer.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Good looking, spacious, fast, comfortable, can't believe there are not more around on the roads.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Absolutely 100% yes. Citroen dealers don't even argue on the price. Got everything I need from a kid transporting car to picking up the boss for a round of golf.

What are you likely to buy next?

C-Crosser, no question.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£19,995

When did you buy the car?

October 2010

Did you get a good deal and why?

Rang round three or four dealers asking for best price over phone. Three offered a deal, this one over £5k off asking price.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Large boot and you manually select 2WD or 4WD

What was the dealer like?

Very helpful and knowledgeable, no nonsense, no heavy sales pitch, you want to buy a car & I can help you do that attitude.

What's it like to drive?

Goes like a rocket if you're not careful.

What's it like to park?

Not easy to judge where the front or back is. 6 months in, I'm still not quite used to it. Feels like parking the Ark Royal but actually smaller than it looks.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Famous last words, but not one thing.

What's most practical about your car?

Occasional two seats in boot useful but not for long journeys. Best for kids but my wife has sat in them too.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Manually choose 2WD or 4WD. None of this automated nonsense.
