These are great , utmost reliability !!!!!! From a trader. After 10 pints. Oh. It’s not a Camry. I take everything back.
Coffee stain or human milkshake?!! 😂
Looked at the MOT history for this car, it's pretty decent. Had an MOT with no advisories this year. Failed in late 2021 but the fail issue was obviously rectified. Had 3 clean MOTs between 2018-2020 with no advisories. Some minor fails in there (2013, 2016, 2017) but all the issues were fixed.
Although cosmetically this car looks like it's done 95k miles, It's been well looked after mechanically. Will make a good little run around for someone and likely has a few years left in it.
Good car.
Note: it has an automatic handbreak! Just drive away, it will go off or turn the key off and it will turn on.
Should you change the timing belt and water pump? Great car and v reliable especially the 2.0l hdi.
As long as you stay away from the Egs automated gearbox cars theres nothing really wrong with these. Most get abused by skinfints and need too much recon.
That’s what Mr Range Rover Matt says 👍👌😃🚗
Massively overspent
@@robparker1625 yes and that.
Like the 90’s - Loads a money 💰 👍👌😃🚗
Having scrapped two Picassos and one Clio earlier in the year, he is always happy to spend £5000 fixing up an old Freelander 2 in a recent video.
@@owensteele1645 yep - all the top brands
In Italy the average price for the same car, 150k km, year 2010, is above 4000 euro...Additionally, you would soen 600 euros for orooerty change tax and other 600 euros oer year for assurance. Prices of used cars are very low in UK
Same in Portugal - very expensive 'cheap' cars!
600 euros for the property change?! Are you for real or was that a miss print? That sounds insane I've bought entire functional cars for less than that. LOL 😂 😂
To the other comment. In fact I'm Portuguese but have been out of the country for more than a decade. So my information is rather outdated.
Great video. Joe is the type of person who I'd get on with. Probably 😉
Had the Citroën C4 ( 07 ) ..great car , very reliable and really shifted .
chipsaway will do that little bit of lacquer peel on the bonnet and it will cost nowhere near 300/400 quid
If you think that thing is quirky, I used to have a Shitroen GSA Palas back in the late 80's, it was like a spaceship with three levels of suspension settings. It was well before its time. Had a similar steering wheel set up.
Great Video and content as always! Looking forward to the next video
Some family is going to love that car@£2495 👍🏻 not everyone has deep pockets times are still hard great video👊🏻
Absolutely
I like the music in this video - it sets the scene.
I won a 08 7 seat Grand Picasso 1.6d vtr+, 87k, full history/mot, new towbar requiring £200 on one injector and a seal and just a buff and valet from BCA for £850 out the door. Stole it because of the noisy injector ticking. All Picasso seats have that problem.
Have a 2011 Citroen C4 Picasso 1,6 THP Tendance Automatic. She does what she needs to do. Great car for its price. Even feels alot safer on the road than a smaller car.i bought mine for 3500 Euros. Cant get a better one for that price, especially with all its features 😊
I have a 2009 c4 picasso 1.6 THP exclusive full service history 34,000 genuine miles 1 x previous owner who sadly passed away 11 months mot 4 x new tyres and purchased for just £950 !! car is in excellent condition has gorgeous deep black coachwork !!
Hi Joe,looks like a popular car,94/100 is really good.that would be a expensive window on the front but spacious with the visors up.a valet and it will be a new one.
I enjoyed that- You seem to be developing your own style, the return is probably a bit optimistic as I think you now have a mechanic's wages and other overheads to take into account (as if you didn't know that!) looking forward to your next one!
Yes, very true, I suppose I work out the figures based on what it would be if you did the work yourself
Good work mate keep it up 😊
God awful electric handbrakes on those 😵💫
Why not show the centre console on the test drive......
If the speed limiter is similar to my pug 508 you need to be driving below the speed you want it set at to actually be able to set it!
Great Video you have redeemed urself after the last one lol!! have to say tho when saw was a citroen again i thought oh no!! lol
Citroen designed the only car with a receeding hair line
😅
Unfortunately My C4 Picasso died last week. After showing the message Engine fault Repair needed. One of its cylinders and the Turbo died on me.total costs 1750 euros. 😱. Not worth it any more. Bought the car last year for 4500 euros has 245000 km on it. Now the C4 is for sale for 900 euro.🥺
Oil, oil, oil. I don't know how many I have seen go under all for the same reason... It's honestly a pity because these 1.6 HDI, the 2.0HDI also, can do a awful lot of km's before tuning their soul to the scrap heaven. >500k is rather easy to achieve. ;-)
Tip: When getting an older car. Always do a couple of short range oil flush. Filters, etc. Bare minimum two close oil changes.
It can be with cheaper oil. The intention is to "wash" the thing.
It might sound excessive to some. But that's one of the reasons why the 1.6HDI has been one of my, flawless, favorite engines, since 2004! ;-)
@22:07 Maybe you could buy a cheap bonnet in the right color for less than a paint job. Unless it is not worth it.
It seems that Ronnie Pickering has traded in his vehicle.
It's quite remarkable that people don't study the subject of their own video. Then fill up the entirety of it with stupid remarks! Strange for sure!
I can't see how you can limit the speed, bit strange if it's 32 mph, maybe in limp mode sorry if I got it wrong (?) had loads of these and there a bit troublesome, I tend to out them cheap as is tbh, bought a 58 plate for 450 sold it for 795,12 plate big miles for a grand, took 1800, all was OK until steering lock wouldn't come off, fairly popular tho, but chances of everything been OK are very slim, engine shouldn't be noisy at all, your buying the wrong stuff for cheapies with that tbh, turbos, dpf, elloys fluid, to mention a few problems,
Funky little space shop 😂😂😂
Massive windscreen, like you would see on a coach.
Does it come with a Ronnie pickering bobble head with sound effects 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks ❤
When filming interior would it be better to film from passenger side?
Yes probably. We would have got a few more shots normally but we had to film, edit and upload this one all today!
Seems like a good car for the money tbh, after viewing multiple cars around the £1000 mark recently for my dad you certainly struggle to get anything better than this especially for something with this practicality.
Yeah, I’m quite impressed really
He's wanting 2400 ish tho, so it's not available at a grand
That steering wheel gets me every time, then.... I lose interest lol.
Cars like this make me want to do a £500 car challenge but then we end up spending money on the track car haha.
Do it, you won’t regret it! People like to watch that sort of thing
@@ShiftingMetal Maybe oe day!
They're a good seller these cars..
in my country its selling for 500 right now. 1.6 vti. if i get paid 500 i might consider this crappy half product...the french builded the eiffel tower to look to deutschland how to make cars.
SPEED FOR CRUISE ON MOST CARS IS 40 MINIMUM,
0:29 music please?
Genuine question, how are you managing to warrant these cheap cars sold from the farm?
Are those controls typical for a Citroen? Looks a tidy motor though
They do have some funky ideas but I’ve not seen some of these before (ie the heater controls)
You love your bangers don't you lol
I like anything with a profit in it
Ta broken screen would right the car off at this age
A French jellybean.
I think camming thru the passenger side door would be better (other than the insane climate control location in this case).
"Hey, before Joe goes thru the new car, make sure you crank the oil cap closed with the big mole grips." Never, EVER came across an oil cap not easily unscrew-able. Bonkers.
"So is the design weird enough to start building, Pierre?"
"Oh, mon frere; not even close. I have steering wheel feelings."
"oil cap not easily unscrew-able..." Same for the oil deep stick!
Tip: That's an immediate and screaming RED Flag. Meaning the previous owner seldom use those items. And as such the inner core of that engine is almost sure in need of attention. At minimum a flush. ;-)
I've come across a few of those myself. The latest a Ford Connect where the oil deep stick obliged a lot of wiggling, silicone spray and pliers! Until it came off. Yep, hard to believe. Probably haven't been touched for many years. To the point that the oil pipe, where the deep stick fit, was rusted! LOL 😂 😂
👍👍
Better not look at the recent Car UK video on a Picasso 4...
Why, what happened?!
His vlog episode 3 32 minutes in - basically his No.1 car that he wouldn't retail@@ShiftingMetal
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🚘
Are you still liable by the consumer rights act on these car 🚙 of so little value ? That chops keeps going on about ?
Yes, if you’re business you are!
C4 Picasso not known for reliability
Your own videos were better before high peak take iff " ive bought a cheap this' blah blah blah
Ok, which videos were better?
What was the point of the video ? Pointless
It needs a point?
To entertain
It's about what to expect when buying a 2010 Picasso. This is an awesome video.
