Citroen C4 review – Is it a proper quirky Citroen?

Citroen has a fine history in producing great, quirky and characterful cars, but it has sometimes dropped the ball when it comes to its family hatchback. Is the new Citroen C4 another great Citroen or is it one to forget? I take an early pre-production car out for a spin to find out.

I'm a big fan of the new C4, it's quirky without being too fussy, and the comfortable drive sounds good too. Citroen have definitely rediscovered their style too, this is basically a new GS, but I notice a few other old Citroen designs here too

All the best with your new channel .Nice review. I liked the interior of the car about exterior i guess all the cars of the C segment will look like this in the future .

Love Citroens they bring out some amazing designs. I've just ordered one for delivery in a month or so. Can't wait as it looks so different to most other things on the road.

Looks good. I loved my AX in the 1980s - it's fuel economy was astounding when I cruised at 65 down through France to Switzerland. I might get one as it sounds just what my sore back needs

First time I saw it I hated it. Now i love it. I guess this is how citroen works.

Great review. I'm looking forward to seeing your review of the DS7 E tense

Love the c4, in fact love the whole Citroen brand. Do all car reviewers need to compare everything to a Ford Focus which has always been a dull dreadful car, anyone would think they're sponsored by Ford.

Just ordered a c4 shine and collect on Tuesday. Let's see if its as good as I hope.

Now just waiting for delivery - I signed a contract on the "Shine Exclusive" definitely my kind of car.

Delighted to see the return of the heating and ventilation controls as proper 'knobs' or dials. I've lost count of the number of times I have almost caused untold carnage on the A3090 in my C3 while trying to adjust the temperature. Good move Citroen.

I couldn't stop laughing at first min of video I thought you were going to put your fist through the sat navigation.
