What does this car say about you?

That I like a bargain.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

Parents aren't fans as they say its to firm and seats are uncomfortable, and my dad hates it as its a Citroen. Can't really fit many people in the car so no one else has commented.

Would you buy this car again and why?

No, it's only practical for parking and nothing else.

What are you likely to buy next?

I'm looking at Fiat Grande Punto's or Vauxhall Astra's as they are much bigger.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£4,500

When did you buy the car?

October 2008

Did you get a good deal and why?

Deal was ok, my part ex was worth more than the C2 though so it made things a little difficult as dealers never like to give cash back.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Had a small convertible before and needed a car with a boot for my new job. I liked the look of the C2 and they are cheap.

What was the dealer like?

Great dealer, All Electric. Had brought a previous car from them and they are always very helpful, great after sales too.

What's it like to drive?

Very easy to drive and its small size means its great in towns and on country lanes, it's also fast enough on the motorways too. Not great over potholes though, suspension is very firm.

What's it like to park?

Great.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing major, but there are annoying rattles and creaks in the car as plastics are quite cheap.

What's most practical about your car?

Its great for town driving as its so compact and its farely cheap to run.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Very basic car so not much to say, blue trim inside is nice though.
