Summary
What does this car say about you?
That i'm young at heart but mature enough to commute from a to b as cheaply as possible !
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
All were very impressed with her !
Would you buy this car again and why?
Definately ! so much fun & laughs to be had plus this car just eggs you on to drive for miles and miles & being the top of the line model with a diesel engine you can't help but smile at the bank balance : ).

May possibly go for a DS3 next, HDI of course ;).

£4,295

September 2011
Did you get a good deal and why?
Yes ! i traded in my thirsty old truck which i got a good deposit for & i took out finance with them which won't penalise me for early repayment of the agreed sum which i'll have saved up enough from running costs of this gem !

It was in black & had the 1.6 hdi engine which powers the bigger C4.
What was the dealer like?
No problems with dealers as i've known them for a long time & my dad has been with citroens for a long time as well.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
AWESOME ! i was sold after i took her out for a test drive, VERY relaxed & effortless to drive with PLENTY of shove from the 1.6 litre hdi engine - i can leave this car in 5th & overtake anything without dropping a gear plus it's VERY agile & taught enough that it doesn't sacrifice on ride comfort ! Very impressed !
What's it like to park?
A doddle ! this is a small car & the steering is light & easy as well.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Only had the car a couple of weeks but so far so good, touch wood !
What's most practical about your car?
The split folding tailgate which is pretty neat & of course the mpg & tax which is far superior towards anything else i've driven.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
The seats are WELL comfy & the A/C as well which blows ice cold.
