I also like the C3 Picasso - good review. However, you failed to mention the great ride comfort, or whether the seats were supportive. One thing I like very much about the C3 Picasso is that it has a good old-fashioned *manual handbrake.* I happen to hate automatic handbrakes with a passion. You also didn't say how many revs you would do when driving at, say, 70 mph, and you didn't mention the turning circle. *Why didn't you mention these things?* They're important...
Hi Tim, firstly thank you for the comment. I appreciate you taking the time. To be completely honest with you I was en route to sell the car and I happened to have my go pro on me so I thought 'why not do a quick review?'. Hence the audio / picture quality isn't up to standard. I also didn't have time to script it so, like you said, I did miss a few things. I will pin your comment so people know about the ride comfort and I agree on the old fashioned hand brakes. Quick and easy. Although, electronic ones with hill start assist and auto hold are becoming very slick these days. Revs at 70, from memory, around the 3,000 mark and turning circle is good as the C3 Picasso is actually (in wheelbase terms) the size of a supermini. Between us, I think we have covered everything people need to know. I will script the next one I promise!
@Peter Hicks You could say that again!! I have a Prius and I gate it:- 👉once battery gone dead and I was left strin in the middle of a road. .( luky it was a back road, not main one...)😔😞
@Peter Hicks Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the C3 Picasso have a mechanical handbreak? But I must admit I'd personally go for the 1.6 litre petrol engine.
Had one for 4 years. 2016 platinum model. Done nearly 100,000 miles with it. Multiple trips to France. Been a cheap car to own. Would recommend it to anyone.
Sounds fantastic. I bet its a perfect car for a trip to France with all the space...also I imagine the French give you some kudos for driving one of their own 😂
Yes it is a good car for trips to France plus l occasionally tow a trailer over there. Good towing vehicle. Not had any repairs done over there yet but any local garage would be able to repair it.

What a great review video lad! Exactly what I was searching for and no other review channels had it. You were the only one I found to be so clear, direct, honest on this model and covered all the bits needed. Thank you for posting!
I bought a 15 plated exclusive model in May - it’s great! Plenty of space, 60 to the gallon, dead comfy and good seating position. Ride is typical French - soft, like driving Mr Softy !! Great car .
Great review. I'm hoping to buy one very soon. The small glovebox is because of the fuse box. When the car is left hand drive the glovebox is bigger and obviously on the right, But when they make the vehicles right hand drive they don't move the fuse box and therefore all associated wiring looms. Thanks again for the video, very comprehensive.
I bought a 12 plate one of these for a grand with a 39k 1.6hdi . It hadn't run for 3 years I spent £800 putting it right brakes tyres egr cooler ,oil cooler, thermostat housing, diagnosing multiple srs module faults seat belt pretensioner issues. But ive ended up with a car I now would take to the moon and back! Its just like a van but miles better.
Wow you've got yourself a bargain there. 1k is nothing for, like you said, a car that will go and go. It really did give me the impression that if looked after it would go forever. Van but better is the best single line description I've seen so far!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you can also pull the rear seats forward if you just want to extend the boot space without putting the seats down.
Thanks, I’m on my 4th, I recently had a 2 year dalliance with a Kia Venga, but it wasn’t so comfortable as Picasso, so I’m back, now with a petrol auto Exclusive which is loaded with extras….great car, not one to do a racing start with, but heigh ho, my kinda car!

Brilliant aren't they. I think they'll end up like the Xsara Picasso in a few years. You'll just see loads still on the roads with nobody wanting to ever get rid!
Just bought one of these I pick it up in the morning. Ideal for what I need and looking forward to getting used to it. Only thing that's annoyed me is the position of the radio means it won't really be good to have it replaced with a modern screen system.
I've inherited one of these from my late father-in-law who lived in rural France. I'd been in it before with him driving and to be honest I didn't expect much. My main car is a mk7 Golf R so it's never going to come close from a driving point of view, but it sits comfortably at cruising speeds. Just takes a while to get there (it's a petrol engine - not sure what capacity but I expect it's a base model). What you didn't mention is the stalks are behind the steering wheel, which is not unusual, but they are so tucked in that you can't actually see what they are for while driving. I expect you will get used to that but driving it for the first time was quite tricky. The steering wheel can't be adjusted either which is annoying. My own impression is it's a decent little runaround but a lot of the cubby holes etc. make little sense. It's like different people designed different parts but they only talked to each other when trying to fit it all together. Space is decent but if you enjoy driving, look elsewhere.
Hi there, apologies for the slow reply, thank you for taking the time to comment. I can imagine that it's not even close to your Golf! But yes, they are comfortable enough aren't they. Agree on the stalks, they are a bit awkward to use initially. I have since owned a Xsara Picasso and that was exactly the same so I imagine for Citroen owners it will feel 2nd nature. I really enjoyed the cubby holes, but I think, that's because I've never really had a 'practical car'.
Had the Xsara picasso 1.6hdi for years now own a 1.6hdi C3 picasso. Other than nicer dash display and a nicer mirror, electric wing mirrors,better radio (but not as easy to upgrade) and cornering headlights I found the Xsara picasso a vastly superior car. It had much more storage space, much much more room inside, far better drive and better fuel economy. I do like the gadgets on the c3 even simple things like auto lights, and dog mirror, as well as cheap road tax but really miss my old picasso which really was much more spacious and better designed all round. If citroen re-did the old picasso with the modern features of the c3 I would buy one in a heartbeat.
Thats a really interesting comment Ken. I had a Xsara after the C3 and I have to say, I can understand your comments. They are without doubt roomier inside and on reflection, the drive is probably better too. Although, for me the Xsara just felt and looked so old compared to the C3. I'm with you on the remake, lets petition Citroen!
I‘m still looking for a good one for myself, as it’s one of my favorites. I was confused by the fact that my insurance said this car with the 95HP engine is 200€ less every year than my 73PS Citroën C3
Yeah they really are nice aren’t they. That is a strange one on insurance, it seems like they factor in so many random things when calculating the premium
Tell me- what on earth is the orange light behind the dash for (shines through the windscreen) ?? As the owner/driver, I've never noticed it- but others have drawn my attention to it !!
Je ne sais pas is right! It's a really strange feature, especially when looking at the car from the front at night. I don't think it serves any purpose. Just a quirky French design I think. Do you have a C3 Simon?
@@timtube1663 Bizarre idea... Surely a couple of led's- day or night would suffice !? After all- no-one else does it ! You can even see the wipers casting a shadow on the display in the day lol !!

I found your review of this car. I have one and now had for 10 years, with 185k miles on the clock. Still getting 68mpg too. Dam good car. I would like to see more reviews of this kind of car, only because I do not change my cars willy nilly. But what I would like to see stated, whether the cars have a Handbrake or its a switch handbrake. How long the Adblue , lasts in the car. Does it have a gauge to tell you if it runs out. Is it Euro 6 or not. But thanks for a great review.
I have one with 84k on thr clock. It handles superbly. Prior to this I had a series of sports cars, but I am 66 now so went for the citroen for comfort. They really do handle well.
100bhp but what on earth have they done to this 1.6hdi engine in the C3 picasso. It's raspy, slow and has no torque. I had the same engine in 92bhp version in the bigger xsara picasso. It was more powerful smooth, quiet, torque-y and quick.

Keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road for goodness sake! Youve posted enough evidence in this video to get you done for driving without due care and attention.
😬not the first comment that’s suggested that! But I have to say, baking a cake tickled me 😂 I will endeavour to maintain contact with the wheel in future!

My main car is a mk7 Golf R so it's never going to come close from a driving point of view, but it sits comfortably at cruising speeds. Just takes a while to get there (it's a petrol engine - not sure what capacity but I expect it's a base model).
What you didn't mention is the stalks are behind the steering wheel, which is not unusual, but they are so tucked in that you can't actually see what they are for while driving. I expect you will get used to that but driving it for the first time was quite tricky. The steering wheel can't be adjusted either which is annoying.
My own impression is it's a decent little runaround but a lot of the cubby holes etc. make little sense. It's like different people designed different parts but they only talked to each other when trying to fit it all together. Space is decent but if you enjoy driving, look elsewhere.
Hi there, apologies for the slow reply, thank you for taking the time to comment.
I can imagine that it's not even close to your Golf! But yes, they are comfortable enough aren't they.
Agree on the stalks, they are a bit awkward to use initially. I have since owned a Xsara Picasso and that was exactly the same so I imagine for Citroen owners it will feel 2nd nature.
I really enjoyed the cubby holes, but I think, that's because I've never really had a 'practical car'.
You can adjust steering wheel up down and pulls out I pulled it right out for my long legs
@@mambo12345 Oh cool. I'll see if I can find that. I've got a base model though so it might not be available.
Had the Xsara picasso 1.6hdi for years now own a 1.6hdi C3 picasso.
Other than nicer dash display and a nicer mirror, electric wing mirrors,better radio (but not as easy to upgrade) and cornering headlights I found the Xsara picasso a vastly superior car. It had much more storage space, much much more room inside, far better drive and better fuel economy.
I do like the gadgets on the c3 even simple things like auto lights, and dog mirror, as well as cheap road tax but really miss my old picasso which really was much more spacious and better designed all round.
If citroen re-did the old picasso with the modern features of the c3 I would buy one in a heartbeat.
it has more space cause it is almost 30cm longer
Thats a really interesting comment Ken. I had a Xsara after the C3 and I have to say, I can understand your comments. They are without doubt roomier inside and on reflection, the drive is probably better too. Although, for me the Xsara just felt and looked so old compared to the C3.
I'm with you on the remake, lets petition Citroen!
Floppy gearsticks seem to be a signature of just about every Citroen.
I have a Xsara Picasso auto - flopless!
I‘m still looking for a good one for myself, as it’s one of my favorites.
I was confused by the fact that my insurance said this car with the 95HP engine is 200€ less every year than my 73PS Citroën C3
Yeah they really are nice aren’t they. That is a strange one on insurance, it seems like they factor in so many random things when calculating the premium
I want one great video I noticed Duffield in the background
Thanks for the comment Gary. Yes you did, pretty much where I grew up so Derbyshire is where I do most of my reviews!
Am looking forward to owning the C4 Grand Picasso but with the more desirable 2.0hdi.
My friend has one of those. Massive inside aren't they!
Just wondering what the wind and tyre noise is inside the car during motorway trips?
It's not the most quiet car but equally, its not the worst. I don't remember thinking the road noise was unbearable!
Tell me- what on earth is the orange light behind the dash for (shines through the windscreen) ?? As the owner/driver, I've never noticed it- but others have drawn my attention to it !!
Je ne sais pas
Je ne sais pas is right! It's a really strange feature, especially when looking at the car from the front at night. I don't think it serves any purpose. Just a quirky French design I think. Do you have a C3 Simon?
@@macswhips I do own a C3 Picasso HDi... very happy with it also :)
It's the speedo. During the day it uses natural daylight to illuminate it. At night the orange light shines through as it's a transparent screen
@@timtube1663 Bizarre idea... Surely a couple of led's- day or night would suffice !?
After all- no-one else does it ! You can even see the wipers casting a shadow on the display in the day lol !!
Had mine 4 about 6 years, Great Car, looking 2 upgrade now...anyone know a similar style of car, one that's still quite high?
I know the Fiat 500L’s are quite similar in size and height. That could be an option.

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

I found your review of this car. I have one and now had for 10 years, with 185k miles on the clock. Still getting 68mpg too.
Dam good car.
I would like to see more reviews of this kind of car, only because I do not change my cars willy nilly. But what I would like to see stated, whether the cars have a Handbrake or its a switch handbrake. How long the Adblue , lasts in the car. Does it have a gauge to tell you if it runs out.
Is it Euro 6 or not.
But thanks for a great review.
I have C3 nice car I had a Octavia 2.2 diesel nice car😁sweet on diesel C3 200 miles just over £35🤟
Good review ,try driving with two hands on the wheel or at least one .
Noted. Sensible advice I have to admit! 😅
I think all french cars have a loose gear stick. I have a xsara and I've driven a couple of Peugeot's and they all felt like that
Ah that is good to know. To be fair, I still have my first ever car which is a Peugeot 106 and that has a pretty loose one as well thinking about it!
Do you have auto car ?
Not anymore, I sold it after making this video
Ok yeah but how's the handling?
It’s not so bad. It is what you would expect from a Citroen MPV 😅
@@macswhips 😬
I have one with 84k on thr clock. It handles superbly. Prior to this I had a series of sports cars, but I am 66 now so went for the citroen for comfort. They really do handle well.
100bhp but what on earth have they done to this 1.6hdi engine in the C3 picasso. It's raspy, slow and has no torque.
I had the same engine in 92bhp version in the bigger xsara picasso.
It was more powerful smooth, quiet, torque-y and quick.
I wonder if the newer ones are heavier?

80mpg???????????
I get 55 to 60 only on really really long motorway runs on average.
I can neither confirm or deny that I was talking out of my arse. I think it just felt like 80MPG compared to my S5! 😂
Keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road for goodness sake!
Youve posted enough evidence in this video to get you done for driving without due care and attention.
😂😂 My apologies. I'm a bit Italian with my hand movements!
@@macswhips No excuse
@@jacketrussell 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼
Be good if you kept at least one hand on the wheel instead of waving them about like your baking a cake.
😬not the first comment that’s suggested that! But I have to say, baking a cake tickled me 😂 I will endeavour to maintain contact with the wheel in future!
