    Bad Points: I have not found any bad points worthy of note, but accessing the spare wheel and the battery can be awkward. The battery is being located beneath the front passenger seat.


    General comments: An excellent multi purpose vehicle for the price. My average fuel consumption is excellent..... 63 mpg and over 70 when driving steadily at 65mph on the motorway.
    Superb all round vision and lots of leg room both front and rear.
    Real gutsy acceleration in 2nd and 3rd gears.
    There is a very generous boot space and this can be further increased by simply removing all, or any combination of the three individual rear seats.

    Bought a Citroen Xsara Picasso in 2003 only done 1800 thousand miles. Steering pump now faulty after so little mileage. Has anybody with like experience. Would like advice.

    I have had a Citroen Xsara Picasso 1.6i Desire for one year and find the space excellent. It is high up and has very good visibility except for the two corner front struts which just impede your vision for corners and roundabouts. Very comfortable to drive over short or long distances and ecomical, but having a big petrol tank is a real bonus. Only gripe is that it could do with a 6th gear at 60mph or the gear ratios changed as the engine is straining to get out of 5th, so if there is 2.0 litre ...

    We wanted a Picasso for a while and decided a used one was to expensive so we bought brand new with 0% finance. We now have a baby and it the most practical and comfortable car I have owned, way better than my previous Xsara hatchback particularly with regard to build quality and interior materials. There are some nice touches and bags of storage space, just not sure about the fuel economy yet but as it's only done 500 miles it's a bit early to tell yet.

    When a couple of friends bought Citroen Xsara Picasso's last year, I was mightily impressed by the shape, and the size of the car. We looked into getting one but realistically we couldn't afford a new one and even a used one would stretch our budget.

    But when my mum and dad gifted us some money, we realised that it could be very affordable and would really help us manage a new one. So my challenge started..... I had to talk the other driver in the house into it.

    There are 3 types of Pica ...
