Citroen C2

Citroen C2

The Citroen C2 is a small and compact supermini that was supposed to replace the Citroen Saxo as the symbol of fondness of the youth generation. The new C2 car is based on a slightly shortened Citroen C3 platform and is positioned in the ‘City Car’ market alongside competitors like the Ford Ka. This funky car comes along with a noticeable front end.

The interior of Citroen C2 consisting of everything that is required for a town ride. Beyond the steering wheel the analogue rev counter arcs above the digital speed and fuel counter. The C2’s are not much for comfort. The seats are adequate but the ride can be rather rough at times, and the cabin does a decent job of eliminating road and engine noise.

While most C2s are destined for urban motoring they can happily stretch their legs on the open road. The Citroen C2 Stop & Start technology makes the driving experience more thrilling. Citroen claimed the Stop & Start concept can decrease fuel consumption by up to 15 per cent. It comes with a three year/60,000 warranty with service intervals every 20,000 miles.

There is choice of four petrol engines one diesel model (for which Citroen claim the best fuel economy of any mainstream car in the UK) – ranging from the 61bhp 1.1-litre model to the 1.6-litre 125bhp model. If you use a tank of fuel a week you’ll be saving more than £1,000 a year. The resale value for the C2 may be low but will depend largely on future performance and popularity.

The Citroen C2 is an extremely cost effective car. Cheap to insure, which was surely the point from Citroen – even the sporty-sounding VTR is only Group 6. Running costs are low, petrol and diesel engines provide good fuel economy and insurance rates are among some of the lowest in its class.
