  • Citroen have made what is possibly the best looking car on the road but does it live up to the Racing name? The Citroen DS3 Racing will get you all the attention you need.

    This has to be the most genuine reviewer I've ever seen. Straight to the point and doesn't beat around the bush.

    Great review, bought a DSport 1.6 THP after watching this. 1 year on, still puts a smile on my face everytime I start it! Absolutely great reviews, keep it up!

    Bob thanks a lot for your review (especially from 4:37 when you say that car put a smile on your face!!!). That's exactly my opinion! It's (nearly) all about emotion :) Next week I get my DS3 racing edition 2013 in black an gold :)). Greetings from Germany

    Great review ! i'm soo tired of journalist who focus to much on comparing the car to another on. Good job! Greetings from Norway ! Keep up the good work

    The point about how a car makes "YOU" feel is so true... its a pity people don't understand it or there would only be Italian and French cars in the world... what a place that would be. No BMW, no Volvo... just Alfa, Maser, Citroen, Lambo, Fiat and Ferrari. The brands with soul :)

    Hiya bob, is it just my youtube, or does the sound not line up half way through the video. I had no idea you reviewed a car that I owned (I have the white one btw). Great review!

    I must say that you make really good reviews and unlike most of the car journalists you make out the essence of the car! Very well done!

    @AttaboyIII Good point, there would be a lot more car fans in the world if the Euro boxes didn't exist, we would all have grins on a faces while enjoying the drive to work.

  • @BobFlavinVideo
    @BobFlavinVideo  Před 12 lety

    @Lostspirit221 Thanks very much, music is very important to the visual experience so there's huge thought goes into every video. Unfortunately CZcams doesn't like all the choices :D

  • @samados969
    @samados969 Před 12 lety

    Will you do the Citroën DS4 this year ? I absolutely love your reviews ! Keep the style ;D Cheers from France ;D

  • @tyraela115
    @tyraela115 Před 12 lety

    Any progress on that?
    And for that matter the renewed C5 (with Hydroactive 3+ suspension - now there`s a heritage from the original DS) and maybe the elegance on wheels the C6?
    When can we expect those reviews?

  • @Xavipie91

  • @tyraela115
    @tyraela115 Před 12 lety

    You bought the DS3 R or "normal" DS3 1.6 THP with 156 BHP?
    I absolutelly love the DS3.

  • @VIRTUALBOYKP
    @VIRTUALBOYKP Před 11 lety

    Is that the same engine as the one in the Peugeot Rcz?

  • @bamselings
    @bamselings Před 8 lety +1

    i am about to buy one tomorrow....2012 model....white/black though.
    Many of this model had problems with their engine....the one i am looking at have a new engine (driven 12 000km)
    Have friends who tells me not to buy this car.....what do you say...it been a few years since this review.
    The last 16 years i have driven a Golf GTI 1.8T 20V. Now its time to let her go :(

    @ruairi50 Cheers Ruairi, I put a lot of stock in what you say so it's much appreciated

  • @LaVieDesPilotes
    @LaVieDesPilotes Před 12 lety

    I own 207 Le Mans Series, same engines. Don't forget that these engines internals are build to handle 285 BHP and 400 NM. Just you need to increase turbo boost, that's if you can handle the power ;)
    using stock turbo and engine, just better performance intercooler and exhaust

  • @BobFlavinVideo
    @BobFlavinVideo  Před 12 lety

    I'm afraid I didn't get the chance to video the DS4 it was a mad week when I had it. Great little car if a little weird looking. If there's one around when I'm chatting to Citroen again I'll get one for you.

  • @FerrarifanOls95
    @FerrarifanOls95 Před 12 lety

    There's 3 words to describe this car Quiet (even though the 1.6 litre 204bhp engine is turbocharged) Fast (Not as fast as a Clio Cup but managed to do a lap 5 seconds faster than that car on an episode of Top gear) and Comfortable

  • @NBNBASS
    @NBNBASS Před 11 lety

    i hate to say it but the mini JCW it's much better than the ds3 R , cause i have one DS3 R and my mother has the jcw and she won by alot ! it was ridiculous but i still loving it

  • @BobFlavinVideo
    @BobFlavinVideo  Před 12 lety

    You guys seem to miss out on some great little cars over there. You should write some letters to Citroen and get them to bring you one of these

  • @NBNBASS
    @NBNBASS Před 11 lety

    yes , the only diference in these cars is the size of the turbo and the ECU that in the end changes the BHP and torque
