Citroen Car Lease Special Offers

The C4 delivers a very impressive ride with good levels of refinement the car delivers a zippy ride whether navigating through town or on the motorway. The steering is well weighted and the 2.0-litre petrol motor is ideal for hot hatch performance levels. C4 buyers will have little to complain about.

The Citroen C4 is not a very practical family car. It lacks the cabin space of traditional family carriers, and will not accommodate all the gear that is associated with family life. The C4 would also have a difficult time accommodating older children, there simply wouldn’t be enough cabin space.

In principal the C4 would make a good first car. It's affordable, easy to drive and all of the engine choices on offer are fairly quick. The C4 comes with a good standard level of safety and equipment. The three-door provides somewhat poor rearward visibility and novice drivers may want to select parking sensors from the list of options.

Citroen has a history of manufacturing consevative cars with very little in the way of driver appeal. The C4 is the company’s attempt at breaking the mold and redefining itself. The quick little car with more hi-tech gadgets will do much to boost Citroen’s boring image.

Although the Citroen C3 is more than capable to drive through town, once on the motorway it becomes a less pleasant ride. At low speeds road and wind noise aren’t problematic, but once you increase your speed the cabin can get quite noisy. The roof racks catch wind and the road and engine noises aren’t filtered out very effectively.

The C3 was not meant to be a family vehicle. Being a mini, it isn’t capable of adequately toting around a family. The boot is too small to accommodate the cargo associated with a family. Getting small children in and out will prove to be an especially difficult task, and only a very small family will be provided for adequately by the C3.

The C3 is inexpensive and low insurance rates means that the C3 will prove to be a very attractive to young buyers. It is quick and fun to drive around. Aside from the fun, sleek design; and rugged stance, the C3 is safe and will give parents peace of mind.

Although the French have never had the greatest reputation for craftsmanship things are changing. The C3 is reliable, and is well constructed. The quality of the materials could be better, but at the selling price, you don’t get much better. When it comes to image, the C3 looks nice, and the body lines are aggressive but all the way down to the plastic wheel farings the C3 looks cheap.

The Citroen C5 has a strange ability to take motorways with ease. But this is where the Hydractive 3 suspension system fails. By putting it on a curvy, winding mountain pass, the C5 becomes unresponsive and offers the driver no feedback. Even though the steering remains just as strict and swift as it is on the highway.

Being a family car, there is a generous 471 litres in the boot. This is enough for most, but should you desire more, the estates offer an additional 100 litres. The back seat is smaller than it seems it should be, as the front passengers enjoy much of the cabin space. In the rear, small children will have no problem with fitting, but adults will be limited on legroom space.

As a first car, the C5 would be both practical and economic. It is easy to drive and cruise around town, though, it isn’t likely that first-car buyers will be attracted to the C5. The vast majority of buyers will be employers, as the car is capable of long distance trips.

The Citroen C5 is very classy and is made of quality materials. It was indeed built to endure even the harshest driving. The C5 won’t be likely to leave you stranded on the side of the road, as Citroen has proven itself in many reliability tests. The C5 isn’t the most prestigious of cars, but it offers Citroen’s quality build and reliability, making it a worth while investment.
