CITROEN C3 PICASSO ESTATE Review
Review vehicle: Citroen C3 Picasso 1.6HDI 90hp VTR+

Perhaps the ultimate car for our times. The dinky C3 Picasso is Citroen's take on the downsized MPV, being about as long as a Fiesta but with more space than a Focus. Wide range of petrol and diesel engines.

What's hot

• The fact that it's amazingly practical and good-looking too...
• ...with a distinctive cube shape, chunky arches and smart lights
• Rear bench slides back and forth so there's loads of legroom
• All the seats fold flat, and the boot has a twin-height floor
• Cabin design is smart and modern
• Well-equipped with all models getting air-con
• Comfortable ride and excellent high-speed refinement
• CO2 emissions of just 115g/km and 64.2mpg

What's not

• Not exactly fast, even in 90hp 1.6 HDI diesel form...
• ...with 0-60mph in 10.8 seconds
• Awful PSA five-speed manual box as notchy as ever
• Below eye level, cabin quality is patchy
• Not much fun to drive either with vague steering
• Top spec Exclusive model costs over 15,500

Road Test Rating
Welcome to the best supermini MPV in its class. The Citroen C3 Picasso may not be a go-kart to drive, but that's not the point. It's comfortable, quiet, brilliantly flexible and genuinely good looking. Factor in low running costs and you've got a winner.
