General Comments
The Citroen C5 is an excellent car even after 40000 miles.Best ever car I've had for towing. Just completed a 3,300 trip through Europe and averaged 29mpg with the van on. Usually gets 42mpg average on mixed driving city/motorway.This is and early version April 2001 and was subject to a few updates. Nothing terribly serious. Some noises from the back but I only experienced that for about 3000 miles then it went quiet. Even better since the updates and all covered by the three year Thinking of trading for an C5 estate soon.
