This car is fairly comfortable, but I tend to get lower backache on long journeys, (I have never had backache before).
The ride cannot be faulted when it is working correctly. This is most of the time. (It is no less reliable than normal shock absorbers, and certainly smoother.)
I have a fair amount of trouble with this car, it might be bad luck, and it might be a poor car in general.
This car is difficult to work on, so not recommended for the home mechanic.
The suspension is in fact easier to work on than conventional shock absorbers.
I will not buy another Citroen as I have had three now and feel like a change.
I'm only 20 and drive the same car, I would have to disagree with relation that it's a difficult car to work on at home.
Have never sent my car to a dealer to be fixed, merely learned myself, its actually quite an easy car to work on.
