    4 Stars Lotus to Citroen C3 , one extreme to the other 11/04/2006
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Economy, parking, emissions etc etc

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Hardly any, a small car ?

    The title is almost there, i had planned on buying my dream car, a Lotus Elise , but that was before my girlfriend told me she was pregnant, and so , like the level headed guy i am (?) i bought a Citroen C3 .. why ?? i hear you cry. Well here are the reasons... My boss says im so tight I squeak, but there again being a professional buyer is that a bad thing ?!, I set out to buy a car that would not break the bank on the journey to work (its a 30 mile round trip, which isnt bad but could still hit the wallet). The first thing I did was to check out a government website that details the most ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Roomy inside, comfortable ride.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages interior looks cheap.

    I have recently bought the 1.4l petrol C3 Desire in Black. If you are buying one from a dealer it is worth checking out the prices for the different colours. At the dealer i went to metalic paint was £100 more! Thankfully i wanted black from the outset so that was a bonus. The "Desire" version i opted for comes with a CD player and Air conditioning over the standard model. The power steering, electric windows, central locking and 4 air bags are standard. I also got controls for the radio/cd player on the windscrean wiper wand. Ii have not come across this before, though i dont know if that is ... more

    4 Stars Frugal C3 07/08/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fuel economy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    Took delivery of a new C3 Hdi LX Desire (diesel) in January, no faults on delivery, and 7000 miles later no faults have developed. It's been back to the dealer once for the first service. It used a little oil until it had coverd 2000 miles but now seems to use none. The fuel economy is nothing short of amazing, it's fitted with a display on the dash which gives fuel consumption, and that has never dropped below 60mpg. Most of the time it's around 65mpg, and I have seen 70mpg. It has a decent size fuel tank, should have a range of about 600miles. The performance I've found to be quite good, and ... more

    5 Stars A car I would recommend 09/07/2007
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fuel efficency, Low Tax, Low Insurance

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None really, a few squeaks of the trim, rear leg room limited

    I'm not buying that, was the first thing that crossed my mind when I saw the car on the Network Q forecourt. I was trading in a Freelander (bought for £15K and trading in for £6K max but that is another story or review when I get around to it) for a smaller car for commuting from Plymouth to Torbay a round trip of 60 miles. The C3 was right at the back and all the comments I had heard about Citroen's popped into my head, But..... When I looked at the features as standard I had to test drive it. A year has passed and I am happy as anything about my C3. As standard I get 60 mpg which is a ... more

    4 Stars Bubble car with attitude 03/02/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Low emissions, excellent fuel consumption, features and gadgets

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Bouncy ride and relatively noisy ride

    MY REASON: I bought my Citroen C3 for £4900 after a very long research. I had a look at various other cars on the market and decided to buy this C3 ONLY based on economical and envirmental reasons. SAVING ON FUEL: I live 50 miles away from work and that means that on average I spend around £280 per month on fuel. Driving a car that consumes less diesel (55MPG) my fuel bill drops to around £180 per month. I save £100 per month!! SAVING ON ROAD TAX: Instead of paying close to £200 road tax, I only pay £35 road tax for a whole year! PLUS: 1) Diesel car, fairly light on fuel, I average 52 MPG. 2) ... more

    4 Stars Citroen C3 HDi 19/03/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good fuel economy, pretty spacious for a small car

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Seat has poor back support

    I bought a Citroen C3 HDi Desire and have been pretty pleased with it. I travel aound 60 or 70 miles a day so wanted good fuel economy which I've achieved with around 55mpg. The car is fairly spacious inside for a relatively small car and has been reliable so far (6 months). My main gripe is that the seat does not give decent back support. I've therefore bought a lumbar support for £20 which has helped a lot but I think if you're paying £8000+ for a car they could have included lumbar support. The only other niggles is that the cheap plastic trim was not attached properly below the steering ... more

    4 Stars C3 or in French meaning 'It's you.' 08/02/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Superb pulling power, economical, V quiet cruising at 70.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Niggly things really!

    Citroen are making a great effort now they know where their niche in the market place is! My model is the C3 1.4HDi Model 92 Bhp. Superb engine power 0-60 in 7 or 8 seconds even uphill! Max comfort for a supermini, great looks even when people walk passed next to flashy cars they have to stop and look at it. They have really tried to capture the market with this car. But, just a few niggly things they just didn't quite get right on it. I think the electric window switches are too far away from your hands you really have to stretch. Also, the sreering wheel is not easy to grip. It does corner ... more
