Citroen C3 1.6 HDi 16v

C3 is surely the inheritor of the 2CV - small car with an arched roofline suggesting classic Citroen's visual appeal. It's light in weight and our 1.6 HDI with manual gearbox returns an average 70+mpg. It will cruise on the motorway all day at the legal limit and return 65mpg. We're tall, and ... Read review

Classic Citroen cracker

Advantages: cost, spec level, economy, fun to drive
Disadvantages: some flimsy interior fittings

C3 is surely the inheritor of the 2CV - small car with an arched roofline suggesting classic Citroen's visual appeal. It's light in weight and our 1.6 HDI with manual gearbox returns an average 70+mpg. It will cruise on the motorway all day at the legal limit and return 65mpg. We're tall, and the headroom and legroom in the front are excellent.

The handling is really good as long as you remember you're in a diesel and keep the revs ...
...wheels jump sideways a bit over potholes, but the steering and brakes are excellent.

Servicing is reasonably priced, the build quality seems pretty good. Some interior fittings need handling with care because they're flimsy. But the car is nippy, quiet, reliable and cheap to tax, insure and run. Overall this is one of our favourite cars and great value for money.  ... more

Citroen C3 1.6HDI Exclusive Manual

Advantages: Price, economical, interior height
Disadvantages: Drivers seat too high for short legs

...I had never considered a Citroen as my mum had a BX many years ago which she hated, however I saw the MPG and decided to take it for a test. There were no demos in the exclusive, so we took out the 1.4 diesel desire, we had it for 24hrs (I'd recommend this to anyone serious about buying). It was nippy and easy to drive, although it didn't have any of the specifications which the exclusive had (auto wipe, heated & folding mirrors, cruise control, ...
...more) but I liked it. The engine is the same as Ford's TDCI for those who've had the experience. The boot is tiny, but that's why we have a Volvo as well. There's plenty of leg room and space for both front & rear passengers & there's loads of head room for 6'+ people. What I liked more was the cash-back offers and most importantly the 0% finance. We've had the car for 4 months and it has been fantastic, absolutley no problems. It's done some 8K ...

Clutchless Gearbox on a Diesel - Rare Combination

Advantages: Looks good, plenty of extras, well built, spacious interior, no clutch
Disadvantages: Automatic gearchanges could be better timed

When looking for a new car back in December 2006, I wanted something which ran on diesel, had a clutchless gearbox (i.e. automatic with paddleshift) and looked good. This combination limits youto a number of manufacturers it seems, and I ended up choosing between a diesel automatic Audi A3 and the Citroen C4 1.6HDi 16V VTR+ Coupe EGS. I chose the Citroen C4 based on the fact that it is better value for money (unsurprisingly) and looks better (I also already have a Citroen Picasso) Design I chose the 3 door version, as it looks much better than the 5 door version (which looks like a Ford Focus), a bit sporty even, and meets my requirements. I chose the "Iron Grey" colour, which I think compliments the car's salmon-esque shape. I don't see many C4s in the South-East of the UK, and it does stand out amongst the usual German marques ...
