Bad points:
Less fuel economy than predicted.
Excessive oil consumption.
Rattles and sqeaks in the cabin.
Flimsy feel to interior.
Unpainted (topcoat) under bonnet and other covered areas.
Flimsy bumpers and panels.
Front mud flaps scrape over speed bumps and heavily undulating roads.
Boot sill tto high.
Dealership not very keen to sort out problems and seem unaware of common problems.
Excessive charges for minor servicing £196 !!!! Main review:
Citroen in general, need to listen to comments and act quicker.
Dealers are very lathargic and don't listen.
Charges are too steep.
Overall the car is adequate, but is let down by stupid cutting cost/corners.
Could do better CITROEN!!!
