- The Citroen C3 has bucketloads of personality and is softer than flat earth science. But you also have to overlook some big compromises to really enjoy it.
Our Mark takes you through it.

#Citroen #Citroen C3 #C3Review - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I like that Citroen are doing things a bit differently. A lot of journalists are stuck like broken records on "but the Skoda/VW/Audi..." and pointing out that VAG do German cars better than X brand. Citroen give a gallic shrug and say "did we say we wanted to be German?" and make a French car instead. This works because many drivers value the ability to float up the M1 in comfort over suspension that saves as much as 2 seconds on a lap of the nurburgring in exchange for overly harsh ride quality.
Skoda is pretty comfy, I own a fabia mk4 great car, I drove polo fell I ln love with it also really comfy and well built, I drove C3 yesterday and will be driving on the regular in my job and it's an awful car to drive with a stupid infotainment
The most underestimated car reviewer on the market. Mark, every time you make my day better. I even decided to let some sun in into my home office cave because of Shhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine.
Thanks mate. :-D
With only 11k subscribers millions of people are missing out on the most honest Journo reviewers anywhere. Carwow should use you for the 5 annoying things. I tend to ignore the glossy colour sections ( same as all the others, lovely fantastic really good )and take note of the monochrome parts where the real "it's crap" parts are explained. Great job you should get some sort of youtube award for being honest about what the poor punters are going to get after saving up for 10 years to get a new car.
they have great videos
Great review thanks 👍
im huge fan of your reviews and you are only one left on internet which says actual opinion about the car (sometimes even exact recommendation what you would choose). annndd i have to say that watching this review i felt that you trying to manouver it in correct way, that this is a different car, and yes it does have its flaws, but it still has its costumer. Thank you for your effort creating such masterpiece content, which always leave positive feeling on time spent watching video. 🙏🤙
Thank you mate, what an awesome thing to read. Really appreciate it. 👊🏻
Nearly choked on my cuppa. Hilarious! First class review.
great video, just subbed!
Thank you! Mark. :-D
I really don't want to think about Mark "getting wood" in a C3 😉😉😉
You'd certainly want a discount on that car!!!!!!!!!!!
The BX for today. loved mine
You could have done a review of the old Pug 208 (it's sister car) and it would have been the same ie not made for UK roads. We have a 208 and I hate driving it down back roads, absolutely fine in city or on motorway
Nice one bonny lad.
The upwards angle of the seat is deliberate, it is known as "anti-submarining" it a crash the lower half of the torso (the hips and pelvis ) can slide forward under the seat belt towards the steering column and receive injuries, the angle of the seat is a measure to restrain the pelvis and hips from unwanted movement
It's strange because I had one as a courtesy car and found the clutch, gears and seating position great and the engine was so much more responsive than my Auris.
I'm very tempted to buy one.
Mate can you review the X5 45e and compare it to EVs?
Just had a French-market rental C3 for a week. Found the 6-sp manual shifter sloppy, with huge throws, but it was the clutch pedal that really annoyed me--looong travel, short engagement zone, zero feel. The sat-nav was quite slow to boot up, during which you can't change the climate control settings. It also didn't have Apple CarPlay. Everything else about the car was "OK", but whatever the asking price, instead of buying the C3 new, I'd rather have a used car that was a little better sorted.
Unic car, bravo citroen c3.
The C3 does feel a bit last-gen to me; an EAT6 gearbox (which ruins your joke), the same manual five-speed gear stick from my 2012 208, a single USB port, and I think even the engine is a previous version (the 208 gets 75/100/130), so it does feel a bit like raiding the old parts bin. On the other hand, this does mean it'll be cheaper than most of its competitors...
You are the best, together with the German chap from autogefühl, a nice comical duo too.
Totally agree. Also my 2 fav car presenters.
I don’t think you can compare Thomas to Mark totally different style and whilst maybe a ruler could help with innuendos about inches, I’m not sure Mark could put a thin twist on preaching vegan ideals, on thinly veiled hypocrisy over leather seating being in environmental bad whilst driving a petrol car but then you never know challenge for you Mark
I like the dashcam, other manufacturers should copy this.
Agreed. Great idea. M.
@@vanaramauk I spat my tea at 12:47
No interest in the car but a great review I had to keep watching. Im thinking the reviewer should definitely make a career of this :-)
LOL. Thanks my friend. M.
Why on earth call this ‘small’ these cars are massive !
Great review as ever, Mark, but now I have the tag line “Citroen: a doorway to disappointment” stuck in my head.
Mad props for the "Tool" glasses and "ring out yer dead" bells. Ted Cruz control is a great idea.
Saw it anonimously on another device so came back here just for giving the thumbs-up and complaining, that Ted Cruze should not be mentioned of having anything under control, be it only speed!
Ted Cruz control? Does it always does it always steer slightly on the right?
LOL. Very good. :-D
It allows you to blame buying one on your daughter
@@allotment3275 Yes!
What's even more quirky than the cars Citroen make are the dealerships. They all have a "kids area" which is some sad-looking beanbag chairs and a TV that is always showing daytime Channel 5 content. Even more odd are the Citroen dealerships that have been converted into Citroen-DS combination mystery zones, because you'll wall ten feet from the white-walls-on-IKEA-rugs and straight into an airport lounge where you're the only person to set foot inside of it in the past two weeks, because people want a DS even less than they would want a modern Citroen.
good review of a dull shopping trolley
i dont know.. i do 300-400km trips all the time with this car.. feels OK
The 2019 generation have really bad quality.
not talking about being all plastic, but the vents buttons to open and close? They break easily.
Nice TOOL.
@@DashCamSerbia You didn't catch the joke ? He was wearing eyeglass that said TOOL instead of COOL - and yeah there is a common joke in English describing someone as a tool.
First time i drove it yesterday, I really didn't like the car
Canny review though but
Did you get wood in the c3? 🤣🤣🤣
The second coming of Geordie Jesus!!
Citroen has lost it in recent times!
