    Value

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Good spec, good engine. Really poor bodywork; gets damaged far too easy.

    Costs

    Relatively cheap to service.

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not great cornering, but then I didn't expect it to be.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    It feels faster than the spec suggests.

    Something cheap and nasty you might buy the au pair to drive the kids around in... Don't know what possessed me.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Odd feeling driving position, no matter how I adjust the seat or the wheel. Steering wheel feels off on way, foot controls another, seat offset to the right.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Not been broken into yet... but then who would want to.

    Service

    2 out of 5 2.0

    A Citroen Assured Used Car is no assurance!

  • Problems and Ownership

    Problems

    Engine

    Seems to use oil, even thought it's a low mileage car.

    Other

    The front suspension mountings were replaced not long after I bought it, at less than 2 years old with 19k on the clock. Apparently it's a common fault.

    Would you buy the same model again?

    No
