Car reviews

The Grand C4 Picasso bristles with bright ideas designed to make owning a people carrier easier and more enjoyable. There are easy fold-flat seats in the back, an outsized windscreen for better visibility, lots of clever storage and even a boot light that doubles as a torch. And, being a Citroën, it’s generally good value for money and very comfortable. If it wasn’t for the dire gearchange on the semi-automatic, an awkward driving position and lacklustre engines, it would rate as a five-star car.
