I currently run a 2009 ‘59’ plate Citroen C4 Picasso 5 seat, with the 1.6Hdi engine and EGS gearbox. Whilst it does the job it is meant to do, ie hauling family, trips to the tip etc, very well – I HATE IT! I hate the wallowy ride, I hate the electric parking brake, and above all I hate the gearbox. One might ask why I bought it in the first place, but that’s a mystery even to me...
So, I am on the lookout. The stumbling block to me really is cost to change. In an ideal world I’d like to put up as little as possible. I reckon on my C4 being worth about £5.5k (35k with FSH).
I would like the following:
Estate (for pushchairs/junk etc)
Preferably diesel (I just prefer the drive)
Cupholders (gotta have my brew on the way to work)
Reliability
Engaging to drive
I’m not bovvered about having something that’s up on the miles. For instance, I’ve seen a 10 plate Mazda6 2.2d Sport with 110k for around £6k. That floats my boat.
Anyway, over to you guys for suggestions. Ford Mondeo I hear you cry?!
