Summary
What does this car say about you?
Im super cool baby!
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Most of them have changed their opinion about Citroen's now, most admit its an excellent car...my dad has now bought a 5 door version
Would you buy this car again and why?
Yes but next time im going for the 2.0 VTS HDi...not because the 1.6HDi is no good but because i do alot of driving and the 2.0 would suit motorway cruising speeds better.
What are you likely to buy next?
C4 2.0 VTS HDi (Make no mistake tho the 1.6 HDi 110bhp plus model is very quick and would suit most people with a heavy right foot)
