    Confortable. Plenty of cabin space.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    A bit sluggish in low gear. Ok when turbo kicks in, but you don't buy a saloon turbo diesel if you want to be a boy racer!

    Security

    Alarmed. Citroens take 3-5 mins for the suspension to get pumped up - not really a car for a quick get-away, so not such a risk.
