Citroen C5 (2008 - 2016)
1.6 VTR+ Nav
Understated cruser
A great car and very french as you'd expect.
The reviews on the car site stated germanic build quality. Alas this just isn't the case. After only a year I could recognise that the seats etc weren't going to last the distance, and the paint had by this time dulled to a poor shine.
I suffered a few electrical gremlins, main heating fan failed at 2K miles, and there were reports of window mechanisms failing, and with use you could understand why.
On a positive note, this was a large and very comfortable car, packed with gadgets. I never did get the sat nav to perform to any degree of competency.Mileage was superb for such a large car.
I moved it on after only 15 months. That said I would have another but only at the right price.
