As the thread title says.

Which model do you drive?
What do you think of it?

Mine's a January 2007 1.6HDi (110ps) (manual) VTR+ Coupé in Oriental Blue.

I'm generally very impressed with it - I was in the market for a newish C-segment car and this IMO comprehensively overshadows comparable cars from other manufacturers (Astra 1.7CDTi SXi / Golf 1.9Tdi (105ps) etc) in terms of performance, refinement, comfort and equipment at the very least.

The only flaw being the gearbox, with a very long throw and often reluctant 1st and Reverse gears.

We have a 2.0 VTR+ hatch. Its 06 plate and it great family car and has plenty of go!

My only gripe with it is the total lack of steering feel. Other than that its all good.

I was thinking of chipping ours when the warranty is up - anyone done that yet?

Erm, black c4 by loeb coupe. What do i think of it? Overall it is impressively equipped, but you would have thought seb wouldn't have put his name to a 1.6 16v petrol! Now, then downsides. Why oh why do the french always build rattles and squeaks into every car they build, why is black sooo hard to keep clean, and just exactly why did i,being a spanner, buy a car that is just 8 inches wider than my garage entrance??? Apart from this, every thing is just shiny!

there is mine 1.4 vtr only had her like a month and a bit!
- got the side skirts colour coded first
- then blacked the windows out
- and then bought a full set of citroen alloys off ebay and had them refurbed and powder coated black with a new set of tyres shot on her!

she is getting lowered next week 30mm so i can get over the speed bumps still and just got some recaro seats from a new corsa VXR to put in so she is going to look sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

then its time to get down and dirty under the bonnet!
