I'm surpirsed that Citroen, after the c3, which was renowned for catching fire, named their next car the c4 .

I love these reviews. I have no intention of buying most of the cars, I just love Richards honesty. :)

Oh my goodness 😂😂😂 The mat Watson bit was hilarious!!

I have owned this car for 13 years, it has been amazingly reliable (been changing only bulbs). I am very surprised with your seating position as I am 186 cm and I still have plenty of space to move back my seat. Honestly I think there is something wrong with your seating position. I confirm that the interior quality is great (much better than my almost 45k brand new Cupra Leon Hybrid), has lasted amazingly good 13 years in the very high temperatures in Greece. The automatic gearbox is the worst I have driven ever (especially if you compare it with the brand new 7 DSG I am driving), the fact that it is not creeping means that your car has not had the latest update as Citroen updated the software sometime in 2014 I think. This car saved my live when I was driving at 150 km per hour on a very rainy day and the ESC, ESP intervened and literally saved my life. It is a car that it is not meant to be driven fast definately but i havent seen a better cruiser yet thatn this one. When I bought it I managed 1400 kilometers in one (60 lt) tank. The boot is amazing , I have managed to squeeze in there a whole sofa! Rear axle is paleolithic and very noisy in potholes but does not cause any problems at all. The chassis is amazing sturdy and I think it was the first car in the category with double gazing windows and fully robots laser wielded roof and chassis (there is no seamline on the roof). For Motorway driving it is one of the best cars you can drive for longer ranges and the economy for the 1.6 ehdi car I am driving is enormous. Very quiet car needs some time to heat up this oldie but goodie diesel engine. Amazing equipment for the time it was sold and in Greece as Citroen didnt have a good name at the time it was 30% cheaper that any other competitor and it has lasted much longer and better that any of them! If you find a well maintained one do yourself a favor and go grab one!

This video is so timely. I just bought 2017 C4 1.6HDI in automatic😀 Can't wait to get delivered.

Man your reviews are so so good ! Complete and you give a really nice feel of the car to the viewer !

I so hope that Mat will see this. :D

I've a 13 Manual 1.6D (110). Six years of great service so far. I'm 6'3" and have no problems at all.. Odd.

My ‘13 c4 e-HDi has done more than 360,000KMS. Still drives great

I really love driving.

Great review. I recently bought used and I thought my 1st gear is broken because it was very slow to pull out quickly on roundabout

4:01 I instantly knew he was talking about Matt when he said "not throwing it in the bushes" or something along those lines 😂

I've been a fan of your Conquer Driving channel for some time. I knew you also had a car review channel but have only just found it and shall subscribe. I sold the Nissan Note DIG-S CVT as it was too high a spec for me. I now have a Citroen C1 Flair ETG automatic.

Just found your channel and enjoying your detailed information about the cars you tested. I had a C4 1.6 Hdi auto for 2 years and it never let me down and was as you say very comfortable and did 60 mph on a run. The automated gearbox was not perfect but if you lifted your foot as you did it was ok and even smoother using the paddles.

"Oh here's some potholes! I'm gonna go into them!" 😂

I don’t know why, but I kinda like this car. My parents have same car, but specs are lower. It’s fun to drive a car

Very useful review.

Great video

I've owned the manual 1.6vti for roughly 5 months now, it's a nice car. Although i would say that the gears are really short on the manual. I can drive comfortably 50kph in 5th gear at like 1.5k rpm and it will hold its ground even at 25kph in 5th gear which is funny. Based on how little gear changing you can get away with you might aswell just get the manual lol

Diesel 16v HDi 110 not good, but HDi 112/115/120 with 8v is very reliable

Try it an MB C class or E Coupe ... the same feeling and the outer edge of the front tyres show damage from having such a fantastic turning circle.

The last citroen i had broke down on me on a main road due to the robot failing. Never again! I'll stick with manuals or torque convertors

For under 3k I think this is the best newish car you can buy if you aren't bothered about badge.

Ty for the video ❤️

What happened to the picture quality on this video? A lot of green strips sometimes there

Great video as always Quick question : What do you think of the new Peugeot 208 ?

Great car for sure. 👍

I have a 1.6 auto petrol. Very comfy not so good on fuel. Crap center console shit cup holders. Very smooth very comfy to drive. I like it.

Thinking of getting one of these next but as I'm 6ft2 would you say definitely not enough room? Maybe the later model's have more legroom. Great review btw Richard 👍

I bought today 😄

Love the mat Watson joke😭

How the c4 going now, a year later? Good video thanks

Matt won't be happy with that 😁

My dad has one of these, it has the same 1.6 HDI engine but it’s manual and the clutch slip is very bad

Who's Matt Watson?

I'm ol to buy the exact same model.. Have you driven it for quite long time.. What was your experience and do you still recommend it for beginners?

Well Matt Watson makes so much better reviews 😂 he said that front space is okay but back seats a bit tight 😂 I’m 6 foot tall, went to see one yesterday and had to move the seat closer as I felt too far away from pedals and steering wheel

Bmw f30 review please

Would you ever be able to do a Ford Focus?

Yeah, the seating position is a fail. Was looking to buy one for my sister. Maybe the MiTo and Giulietta are better buy.

what engine oil type is suitable for the petrol 1.6 turbo? 2013 citroen c4 exclusive.

As far as i am aware its a smoother gearbox than a robotic gearbox but not as smooth as a dsg

Is it loud in the cabin what do you reckon?

How does it compare to the Peugeot 308 mk1? I have the 308 with the 2.0 hdi engine and its a perfect car for me. Now we need a second car in the family and I am thinking of getting another 308, or go with the C4 mk2(the mk2 308 is out of my price range, otherwise that would be the choice). Anyone had expirience with both the 308 mk1 and the C4 mk2?

The first two month is a great car than is a continue headings

30 quid a year to tax?

this car not for you as you can't seam to drive it i have had three of these gearboxes and if they start to have a bad clutch take up you need to have the gearbox reset and the clutch bit needs to be seset

The new C4 looks like a coupé.

Hello can i contact with you about cooperation

I c 4 of em micky

E

Must say the design has not aged well, looks 20+ years old

I don't think this child is old enough to have driven and mainly test cars , why do they all want to be the Hammonds And Clarksons of this world . If he had been given a bonus free hotel and food for weekend this would have been the best car in the world. You will not beat a Citroen for good value and without doubt the best engine ever made .just be honest why find fault .

Bad quality really bad
