Citroen C4 reviews

A most comfortable vehicle and has exceptionally good running costs. In particular, an average of over 40 mpg. substantially more than my previous vehicle.

I bought the car second-hand over five years ago. There have been two or three problems over that time but nothing that £200 spent at the garage wouldn't resolve. Overall it is reliable and economical and not really much less pleasant to drive than a similar up-to-date car.

The average consumption according to the car's computer is 58.7mpg. Using fill up figures, it is actually slightly less at 55.3mpg. My mileage is less than 10,000 per year and I pay a small sum into a company and get my car serviced and safety checked at a Citroen franchise once a year which is paid for by said company. Expensive items over 2 years are 2 new tyres, new front discs and pads all round and a rear coil spring thanks to the state of the roads today. So not anything I would not expect with total mileage from new being 107,000. I expect to still be using this car for several more years yet.

Reliable rather than sporty. Handles long journeys well.When fully laden runs well on Motorways but struggles a bit uphill. Well streamlined . Use cruise a lot and most controls automatic. Easy to drive .Not economical on short drives around town. Only grouse is turning field of vision is restricted a bit by front stanchion. Large windscreen also appears easily chipped for some reason ?

BOUGHT THIS SECOND HAND CAR 3 MONTHS AGO AT WHICH TIME THE 2011 REGISTERED CAR WAS 21 MONTHS OLD. TOTAL MILEAGE WAS ONLY 1300 MILES. IT IS VERY COMFORTABLE AND RUNNING COSTS ARE EXCEPTIONAL WITH AVERAGE OF 48/50 MILES TO THE GALLON EASILY ACHIEVED.I AM DELIGHTED WITH ITS RESULTS.

I have only had this car for a few weeks, but have been unable to find any fault with it

I would buy another Citroen based on the one I currently have but I do have it serviced regularly by a Citroen garage - it has never broken down in the (almost) 8 years I have had it and very confortable. Only disadvantage is that is expensive on fuel on short local runs - for which I mainly use it at presnt.

Very pleased with the C4. Economy round town is about 49 MPG and on a motorway or country run can reach 59 MPG. Semi auto gearbox is excellent and it is very comfortable. Only major gripe is the 'ECO' mode for the radio, which cuts out after a maximum of 30 minutes! It cannot be played for more than 5 minutes without running the car engine - not very eco to my mind!

I brought this car the beginning of this year and traded in my earlier model Citroen C4 (2010) after I had to wait 9 months for a replacement Heated Rear Screen damaged by valeters. My new C4 is the latest version and being an ex-demo car it comes fully loaded. Although I have had a few issues with the "Stop-Start" Eco. feature the car has not give me any other issues to date. The fuel consumption is very good but nothing like the claimed figures quoted in their brochures. The car is good for long journeys and comfortable as mine has the leather upholstery and massage/heated function works well. The door mirrors fold when the car is locked and features dead locking and alarm. The navigation is easy to use and the "Bluetooth" and MP3 radio sounds great as this car has the optional "Denon" HiFi amplifer and Bass Woofer in the load area.

I chose the car because it is cheap to tax, not too bad to insure and I get over 50 to the gallon on long runs. However, it is not particularly quiet - not the engine necessarily but the noise from the road is louder than previous cars. Have to play the radio at higher volume than I'm used to. That's my only negative comment about it

problem with nonstop wipers at first ..they were on nonstop for 17 hours.. but heres the good thing, i bought the car from the main dealer with a years citroen guarantee.. every thing was replaced ..i/i..motor,relay,plus the main interface unit ,plus computer downloads must have cost about about a £1000,, otherwise very pleased with the car...morale is best to buy from a main dealer

C4: Clunky gear change and a bit noisy but drives well for the type/price range. No problems in 4 years Good value at the tiome of purchase.

poor build quality - regularly faults develop - lots of rattles and sqeeks . comfortable driving position.

Does everything I need but doesn't set pulse racing.

Very comfortable, reliable car - good value for money

The Citroen detailed is our thirty first. build quality has always been good, power has been first class and fuel economy is in a class of its own. The motoring press always rave about BMW, Mercedes, Volkswagen, all Japanese cars and of course Fords will always be rated as top of the heap. Reports on Citroen products always give the impression that the writer has never been inside the vehicle under review. Citroen diesel engines are always scorned yet these PSA engines are widely used by many car manufacturers, a fact never revealed in reports. Having driven many different Citroen models I would rate all of them very highly. Without hesitation I would recommend Citroen cars as being superior to the competition.

Comfortable, easy to use family car but not very good for foot space for children in stage 2&3 seats. Not as good visibility as in the C3.

car is great apart from suspension is a bit hard

Fantastic little car that is fun to drive when you get off the beaten track but is totally reliable in traffic and on city streets. Plenty of room inside with nooks and crannies for all your gear. Cheap to run and cheap to service if you stay away from the main dealer and find a good independent.

Cheap to run, good fuel consumption, but feels a bit cheap and a number of inner panels have started to come unfixed.
