    Neighbour has one. Red with white roof and white 18's. Looks SAVAGE!!!!

    Edit: that combo makes it sound like a MINI but it's not surprisingly.

    It's a lot better looking than a Mini and you can get real people into the back seats too; not just dwarves. The Mini is a packaging disaster.

    I think they look great - but I don't think they are going to have the upmarket appeal of the mini that they are after with it. and also it doesn't have the retro faux heritage of the mini or the fiat 500 - so I don't know if they'll be able to charge a premium for it ( not in Ireland anyway )

    The prices indicate that they are aiming for the more premium end of the market.

    It will be interesting to see how they fare because traditionally Citroens have always been seen as cheap with very high depreciation.
    If they can create that premium demand in the way that the Fiat 500 and Mini have they might be on to a winner. I have to say I saw loads around the UK last weekend.

    I have a DS3 and I can honestly say it's the best car I have ever had. I have had 3 Mini's in the past incl a cabriolet and the performance and comfort of the DS3 far outweighs the Mini. My husband is forever commenting on the weight of the doors and the comfort of the seats and he's 6ft. I am on the road a lot (Over 70k a year) and it holds the road perfectly unlike other small cars. I have only seen a handful of them around which is good as I am forevr being asked what make it is as it stands out.
