General Comments

In five months my Citroen Xsara Picasso spent 7 days in the garage for major faults. The handling is appalling, the trim is dire, the seats not fit for humans, the brakes are weak, it is like driving a Comma van of the 1970s. I have never been more disappointed in a vehicle. Why did I buy one then? I really do not know, I can only suggest that any prospective buyers should be aware that they are not buying a vehicle of quality, such as with the many Far Eastern marques. Do not look at the outside, look at the inside, and count the parts that seem unfinished. Sit in the drivers seat for an hour, take a test drive over bumpy roads, and listen for the rattles. The steering wheel is far too far from the driver, and is not adjustable for reach, the front seats are too hard and the rear too soft, the carpets and trim wear out almost before your eyes. Then the engine management system lets you down, and you are really in trouble. Do not just take my word for it, try entering "Citroen Picasso Faults" into a search engine and read some entries. I have sold mine, and I am very happy to take a loss and get rid of it.

    They are great value, practical cars as recommended by most reviewers. You must have an issue here that we haven't been told about.
