The looks still inspire me, it is a very pretty car and when I bought it it was a choice between the Citroen Coupe and the Astra Sportback. I'm sure I made the right choice.

The Citroen C4 1.6 HDi (110) VTR+ Coupe has excellent driving position, good economy and loads of gadgets. citroen need to sort out there dealers who are independent and if you complain cant do anything

A fantastic long distance cruiser which is happy sailing along the motorway back and forwards to Donegal every week. Have had 13,000 hassle-free miles with no reliability issues. This car is a joy to live with despite its few design flaws and features such as the electrochrome rear view mirror (dims the lights of the drivers behind at night so you don't need to dip your mirror) and amazingly comfortable seats really make you want to drive this car.

After a month and 1,000 miles I've very pleased with my Citro n C4. The diesel engine pulls well, and perhaps could do with another 25hp, bit with the cruise control on at 70 mph, the trip computer gives around 60mpg. At idle, the engine sounds like a taxi from outside, but inside you wouldn't know it's a diesel.

The 60 litre tank should give 600 miles, which can be followed on the trip computer - in mpg or l/100km, in almost any European language.

I'm tall (1.87m) and there's plenty of room in comfortable seats.

There's lots of info from the dash and automatic everything (mirror, door locks, lights, wipers, radio volume, speed limiter, etc) mostly control from the steering wheel buttons, but once its logic patterns are learned, it's easy to use and informative.

The centre of the steering wheel is fixed, to aid better airbag deployment and to house four sets of controls. Some people seem to react badly to the centre of the steering wheel not moving, but it's perfectly natural and the buttons are easy to find as their position is fixed.

Pull out the ashtray, and there's a big diagnostic socket to access/update the car's software.

The standard 6 speaker Blaupunkt RD4 FM radio/CD is just above average with full RDS Text but doesn't play MP3s.

Doors shut with a solid "clunk" and have deadlocks.

There's been nothing so far to go back to the dealers to have put right. Hopefully I won't need to see the dealer until the computer tells me it's time for a service in about 10,000 miles time.

It's a delight to drive and look at. Recommended!

Initially I was very impressed with the Citroen C4 an exceptionally efficient 1.6 Diesel Turbo. Plenty of low end grunt and overtaking is a breeze.
But a few problems have arisen, the ABS and ESP packed up after 1,200 miles and the carpet trim came loose. A minor niggle is getting a soaking whenever you open the hatchback when it has rained. I still like the car though.

I've now covered nearly 6,000 miles since new six months ago in my Citroen C4 1.6, and the diesel engine's just starting to free-up. It has a very impressive amount of torque at low revs, and is quiet right through the rev range. In practice, at very nearly 30mph per 1000 revs, I rarely exceed 3 - 3,500 rpm, although do let it sing to 4,250 at least once a week to help maintain and clean the injectors.
It's incredibly economical, achieving 65 to 70 mpg on motorway runs (at between 55 to 70mph), and I even manage to average 45mpg in stop-start city traffic.
I'm very pleased with the car, and constantly find I use all of the electronic gadgets.
