Faults:

* rear wires tend to wear not good: outside much quicker than inside - I can only make 50.000km with them - solution of Citroën: first replacement payed by Citroën, second by myself, third by Citroën, and so on...

* several little problems (windscreen washer pump, switch of white rear-lights, switch of board-computer,...) all repaired/replaced satisfactory under warranty - dealer is very fair and doesn't make problems at all - replaced/repaired items stay OK.

General Comments:

* suspension is not quite comfortable on secondary roads, however on the highway it couldn't have been better - ride and handling better than my last car (Fiat Ulysse 2.0 JTD)

* 2.0 16V HDI motor (109 hp) is perfect (although not as quit when cold compared to 2.0 JTD on my Ulysse - which was a 2.0 HDI, too, but without the 16V) - again comfort on the highway couldn't be better - my brother-in-law owns the Peugeot 807 2.2 HDI which is more performant (128 hp), but doesn't like higher revs like my 2.0 HDI does

* sliding doors and fold-able seats (access to third seat row easy!) very practical in daily use

Faults:

Automatic gearbox failed day three.

Electric windows and locks had a control all of their own, quite often when returning to the car it would be unlocked.

Sun roof would often get stuck open, normally as it started to rain.

Screen wash leaked out of the rear stereo speakers

Engine developed a fault which allowed maximum speeds of 10MPH.

Airbag fault was intermittent.

General Comments:

I purchased a MPV because of the size of my family. Dealers, when loaning courtesy cars need to consider what car is being serviced or repaired. A 2 seater saxo is not great customer service when you have a C8!

The local dealer was extremely helpful, the car being relatively new to the market place has many more faults than I would expect and it would seem that we were not alone with these faults when searching the Internet now. Many reviews read very familiar.

The car is comfortable at speed, not so around town.

Pleased to say we now have a Grand Voyager.. take note Citroen.

Faults:

Second row centre seat frame replaced.

Front windows don't always obey your command!

General Comments:

This is a big roomy 7 seat people carrier, which is returning almost 40 MPG.

The cruise control and automatic air con are superb.

The electic sliding rear doors are very good and the tailgate lifts well out of head bashing zone.

The car has many pleasing features such as electrically heated and powered reversable front seats, and the interior seating is very adaptable.

Performance is excellent and the trip computer very informative.

Faults:

Could not open the car using the remote after 2 days.

General Comments:

Had a problem with the remote locking soon after purchase, but the dealer fixed it the next day - no other problems since.

Very comfortable seats all round and the ride is very smooth, the miles just disappear when on the motorway.

Carries the wife, baby, mother-in-law, dog and all associated luggage with ease.

VIP option pack well worth buying - includes parking sensors (invaluable), tinted rear windows and roof bar, which looks very stylish.

Electric sliding rear doors and retractable mirrors are useful gadgets. But I would imagine expensive to fix if damaged.

I've averaged about 28mpg which isn't too bad for a car of its size, but I'm still very glad I have a company fuel card!

A lot of car for a very reasonable price, with big discounts from the Citroen dealer.
