Worse car I've driven in ages.

Brand new Citroen C4 Cactus with just 300 miles on the clock.

Floaty steering, no feel for the road what so ever, feels like you're steering an old Toyota Hilux, the steering doesn't respond as it should i'm sure, it's quite worrying infact.

Clunky gearbox, heavy clutch with no biting point it's right at top of pedal, feels like dodgy Roger has slapped in a moody clutch and fitted it badly.

After 300 miles the drivers seat winder has broken off.

Rear windows don't wind down just open a little from the back.

The drivers seat has a badly positioned armrest that you have to fold up to be able to use the handbrake.

Instead of designing a dashboard they've stuck a big bright tablet to control radio, climate etc, it's extremely bright and you have to find the setting to turn the screen off at night time as it dazzles you.

When the engine starts it seems to struggle to get a grip, sounds rough, no power, overall, it's a good job I only have this car for a short while, if I had of paid just one pound for this awful car I'd still feel I'd have been robbed.

There are so many better cars you can buy for you money, really, don't buy this r****** car.
