Good Points: Easy to park & cheap to run.
Bad Points: When back seats fold down only the back rest go down the seat doent fold forward.
General comments: We have a Berlingo multispace and I wanted the Citroen C1 just to get me to work and for running around town. I love the Berlingo and was worried about the vast change in size but from the test drive I was hooked. Loads of space in the front for two people. It will take four people comfortably on a short journey. The luggage room is small if you try using large holdalls, change your packing habits, use smaller bags and you'll get two people and enough luggage for a fortnights self catering holiday in easily, as we found out when someone ran into the Berlingo the evening before we were due to go on holiday. As a shopping car it's fine, six very full Tesco bags fitted under the rear parcel shelf easily. Ok, so I'm good at packing but even my hubby can get five in. On the flat you will hardly notice the small engine, hill climbing requires you to change gear and read the road well. Basically this is a fun little car to drive and I just love my C1!

I would not buy another Citroen. I purchased the Citroen C1 vibe April 2007, within 15 months the following problems occurred; clutch was slipping, the dealership adjusted the clutch cable. Inside 2 days the clutch was slipping again. After dealership investigation the clutch was replaced due to a default in manufacturing. Returning from a holiday found liquid beneath the vehicle, the AA was called and advised not to drive the vehicle so the car was towed to the dealership. The dive shaft seals ...

Overall a great, efficient, city car - good value for money.
Acceleration could of course be a lot better, but not with the efficiency of the car.
Fun to drive in town with a great turning circle for easy parking. Easy to reverse too with good visibility.

I bought my Caldera black C1 diesel without even a test drive and specifically for its appearance, economy, low insurance and tax.
Having bought it new collecting it on my birthday on the 5th June 2007 heavily discounted by Citroen to £7,495 which included the paint because the car was already in stock in their showroom.
It has surpassed all my expectations with economy I could only dream about.
A lucky purchase on ebay of a refurbished set of Aygo sport alloys for a more than reasona ...

Cheap and high quality. 3dr Vibe is very cheap to buy and run. Not many extras which means less to go wrong. Perfect cheap motoring.

I looked at both the Aygo and the 107 Peugeot. The C1 was the better of the three as with a slight modification (and permission from your insurance company) it is possible to fit an extra seatbelt in the back to accomodate a small child. With the Aygo and 107 it is not possible to do this as I noticed that there is a metal strut in the middle of the rear seat, to allow for split fold down of the seat.
I am very pleased with my purchase. I am looking forward to many happy years motoring with thi ...
