Citroën C4 Cactus (2014 - 2018) 1.6 BlueHDi Feel 5d Owner Review

A lot of car for the money, with a touch of class. It feels quite a bit bigger on the inside than it looks. It's easy to drive with featherlight steering. The only niggle is that the gearbox could be a bit more precise and the pedals feel a bit too close together. You can get a comfortable driving position and the seats do feel like armchairs. However one word of warning, I am 5 foot 8 and I reckon if you are much taller than this then you might struggle. The car does get a minor black mark for no steering rake adjustment, that would change everything from the comfort aspect in the cockpit. I have a light right foot and I am getting 62 to the gallon. I am pleased with that but heaven knows how I can get anywhere near close to the claimed 83 mpg. The touch screen system is really good. It takes a week or two to get used to but when you have its superb. Everything is on there, even a calculator and a calendar, nice idea Citroën. Don't be tempted to hang around on the screen too long though whilst driving, it can easily become a distraction. On the road it's agile and willing. It feels as light as the steering to be honest. Easy to park too. A really nice car overall, but be sure to test drive one to make sure you can get comfortable behind the wheel. If you can you won't be disappointed
