Living with it
Reliability
Never had any problems starting, but the engine cut out a few times while idling. Citreon have said it's ok though…

A boy racer's car, but cheap for what you get
Comfort
Extremely uncomfortable driving position and seats. Pedals are uneven and gearstick is extremely short meaning you have to almost lean forward to reach it!

Security and Service
Security
Never had anyone try to break into it, but I've heard the security is pretty poor. Immobiliser, but no alarm or deadlocks
Service
Citroen are extremely useless. They never got back to me and I had to keep hassling them
