Citroen C5
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.

Review Summary

|
The Citroen C5 is loaded with goodies, all of which add to its overall appeal. It’s reliable and capable of long trips but doesn’t offer a fun or even pleasant ride when driven enthusiastically.
