Citroen C3 reviews
After owning my little Citroen C3 for just over 6 years, the time has come to accept that this relationship has run its course and move on to better things--Like most relationships, this started so well.
To save you scratching your collective heads, it was how a friend described the panoramic Zenith windscreen, a standard feature on all but the base VT trim level. The Visiodrive is how Citroen puts it.
Measuring some 1.35 metres, from behind the bonnet to the start of the roof, the windscreen is around 36 per cent larger than the average for this size of car and whereas the driver's sight line is usually somewhere in the region of 28 degrees, in the new Citroen C3 it is more like 108 degrees.
The Citroen C3 benefits from a stiffened body with strengthened A-pillars and a sturdy, chromed framework to the screen. When the Citroen C3 first came out, the design majored on quirky, fun looks in a similar manner to the smaller cars in the Citroen stable. According to the Company, "the Citroen C3 represents an upmarket shift, while retaining an emphasis on value for money" - and it shows. The large trapezoidal front grille dominates the front end and replaces the twin grilles that were a feature of the outgoing model. This means more bonnet space for the new-look Citroen logo and large boomerang-shaped headlight clusters. For the new car, the window-lines have been raised and the windows themselves are narrower, which also helps to promote a sporty feel.
The Citroen C3 may look small, but it can deliver some very big features. You can opt for the 1.6 litre petrol engine which actually drives many small Citroen variants. Citroen has made sure that the 1.6 litre engine performs well - and it needs to in a such a competitive market place, with many of the japanese car makers offering very good small cars. The Citroen C2 HDi has the 1.6 litre turbo-diesel engine.
