Citroën C8 2.0 HDi 16V LX 5d (2003/03) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
While not the cheapest MPV on the market, excellent vfm.
Costs
Average. Tyres have worn more quickly than on my old Fiat Ulysse and I have found that only about 2 manufacturers make them, so they are not the cheapest.
-
On the road
Driving
Comfortable driving position and no aches and pains, even on long journeys.
Performance
Engine is quiet and smooth and mpg is good for the size of the vehicle. Not the quickest out of the blocks, but then you wouldn't buy an MPV if that was what you wanted.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Have had some recalls, but nothing serious. No mechanical problems although there have been several recalls.
Image
Not the kind of car to buy if you are image conscious. It's a work horse. I use it as a Private Hire vehicle, for which it is ideal.
Comfort
Seating can be a little cramped when holding 7 adults, but not bad.

Security and Service
Security
No audible alarm, thank god.
