Citroen C1 1.0i VT 3dr
What is it?
New entry-level supermini gets facelifted look with a fresh chrome grille along with some new upholstery inside. Otherwise the same as before – but by no means the worse for that. Power comes from a 68bhp 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine. Prices start from just over £8000.
What’s hot?
- Cheeky looks. Big lights and smiley face enhanced by new grille
- Stylish cabin gets better materials
- Throaty three-cylinder engine sounds great…
- …and provides nippy performance in town
- Low running costs: 62.8mpg combined and 106g/km of CO2
- Light but precise steering and a decent ride
What’s not?
- A likeable city car but not as desirable as Fiat 500
- Runs out of puff a bit on the motorway
- Could be more fun to drive
- Getting on a bit now
- Toyota Aygo sister model might be a better residual bet
