2003 Citroen C3 review from UK and Ireland
"Good Value Motoring"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
90k : Locked out of car when parked near to transmitter mast (Droitwich)
95k: Car running lumpy when just started up. Suspected injectors so removed and cleaned all. Problem identified as battery voltage.
New battery fitted and problem resolved.
General comments?
Quite nippy and economical.
Car has been very reliable.
Locking out problem is common when near transmitter masts, so can't really blame Citroen.
Used up and down the M5 100 miles each day regularly for the last 4 years.
Quite a good ride, better than I expected.
Easy to maintain and work on for the DIY motorist.
