No doubt I'll get critisicim (sp?) but it's something in my price range and exactly what I was looking for.

Yes, please dont buy one of them, we have a peugeot 107 at work (basically the same car) and they are fucking horrible, thereisnt one nice thing about then, if you buy one of them I'll fall out with you

Is either that or a 1.4 HDI Pug 1007. I'm swaying more towards the C1.

Yup took them both for a test drive, the Pug, is only Ł90/Tax per year. and it had central locking as with the C1 didn't. which wont bother me, as my Polo didnt have one until towards the end.

I can see the appeal, what with it being a newer car less to go wrong, less running costs etc. But 4 grand for a Citroen C1, fuck me.
Obvously there's a market for them, well in if that's what you're after and it's a good price though. I'd be going for the 1007 with the doors on the fob just for the gimmick of it

Whats wrong with a Corsa C or something?
Theres millions of small engined cars out there that aren't so god-awfully shite. Ok, so you don't want something old or expensive to run, but don't tell us the only choice is a C1 or 1007
