Available at bargain prices.

Mine cost nothing more than oil and filters to run and fuel consumption 45-55mpg!

On the road
Driving
Overall very nice. Rolls a bit when cornered hard, but then it soaks up bumps well.
Performance
Very light, so accelerates well and will just top 100mph. Friends have been surprised!
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never had a problem.
Image
Don't expect your friends to be impressed, except when you buy them a beer with all the money you save over owning anything else!
Comfort
Smooth ride, cramped pedals and not much headroom, but once you're used to it it's not a problem (if you're under 6ft!)

Security and Service
Security
Not secure by modern standards, but then who's going to nick it?
Service
Never dealt with Citroen!
