Citroen celebrates new ‘60’ plates

To celebrate the new '60' plates launched in September, Citroen is holding open weekends at participating dealers, with discounts and finance packages available to potential new owners over the August bank holiday.

The new C3 (£8,990) and C3 Picasso (£10,695) will be available for September registration and include a £2,000 discount to new Citroen owners who purchase the car outright.

A three-year 0% APR finance package is available as an alternative with no deposit. Each new C3 also comes with a factory three-year/35,000 mile free servicing offer.

Customers who place an order for a new 60-registered Citroen C3 or C3 Picasso will receive a gift card worth £500.

Other models in the Citroen range are also being discounted. The C1 1.0i VT 3-door city car is available for £6,495 after a £2,000 deduction, and the rest of the C1 range is available with three years/35,000 miles free servicing and a £1,000 price deduction. The same 0% APR, three-year, nil deposit finance package is also available.

The new DS3 is now available with service plans from only £199, for three years and 35,000 miles, and both White & Black DS3 models can be had from £199 a month on Citroen's personal leasing plan.

Families looking for a people carrier can get a C4 Picasso and Grand C4 Picasso with up to a £2,500 discount. That's £14,805 for a Picasso or £16,005 for a Grand Picasso - or you can opt for a 0% APR, four-year finance package with a 30% deposit.

Citroen's C5 Saloon and Tourer models are also available with the same finance package as the Picasso.
