Is your family expanding, or are you just looking for a used car that gives you more space?
If so, then the used Citroen C4 Picasso is the car for you.
The Citroen C4 Picasso comes in an option of two compact MPV's, a 5 seat option, or a 7 seat option, and many great features and options making it the perfect choice.
The Citroen C4 Picasso was first unveiled by Citroen in August 2006, and the 7 seat option was presented at the Paris Motor Show in the September of 2006, followed by the 5 seat version in the January of 2007.
One of the used Citroen C4 Picasso's main features is the enormous windscreen which stretches back into the roof area, and beyond to the back of the drivers head!
Once you have found your used Citroen C4 Picasso, you will find that it has a completely family friendly interior, with sleek styling, plenty of storage options, and is nice and spacious. This great used car is versatile and perfect for family life.
There are a few engine options, but the 1.6HDi 155bhp, makes the most sense, as you will get around 54mpg while still doing the 0-62 test in a good 9.4 seconds. Other engine options are the 1.6 VTi or 1.6 THP petrol engines, or the 1.6 and 2.0HDi diesel engines. All are good responsive engines and give a good return mpg for this used Citroen.
The used Citroen C4 Picasso is a very comfortable and easy to drive MPV, the nice light steering makes driving in the towns and parking easy. As always, it has excellent suspension as all used Citroen's do! This absorbs the bumps effortlessly. Due to the large glass area, inside is light and airy even when the darker interior trim is chosen. This glass also makes all round visibility excellent, and as always inside the used Citroen C4 Picasso is quiet with minimal external noise.
The seats in the used Citroen C4 Picasso are supportive and comfortable, one cool extra option which I highly recommend to look for in your used car search is the DVD system, which has the screens built into the seat back tables and they flip down when being used and when not in use are neatly hidden away. Another great little extra that the used Citroen's come with is the built in air freshener, which is self-adjustable and comes in a choice of scents.
The Citroen C4 Picasso is great for those longer journeys and is effortless when it is cruising along on the motorways.
Another great thing about the C4 Picasso is the boot size, with a healthy 500 litres, and even when the rear seats are up there is still enough room for a small buggy, and the rear seats fold completely flat to created and even load space.
As Used Cars go the C4 Picasso was designed simply to make life easy for the driver and passengers while travelling on board. They even make life easier by making the boot light double up as a detachable, re-chargeable torch. All but the entry model (LX on older models) comes with a built-in cool box, perfect for those long summer days out in your used car. The Citroen C4 Picasso also has cleverly designed storage boxes, where a sensor detects when you place your hand in and lights up automatically!
The used Citroen C4 Picasso has a great multi-function steering wheel, where most functions can be controlled or activated from, making it safer when driving the Citroen along. Safety wise, the Citroen C4 Picasso was awarded 5 stars NCAP, and the higher spec Used Cars will have the fantastic "lane departure system" which alerts the driver when drifting from one lane to another.
On the Used Cars market, the Citroen C4 Picasso is available in a range of trim levels, post 2007 model are only available in 3 trims, the VTR, VTR+ and finally the Exclusive. All used Citroen C4 Picasso's do come well equipped as standard though.
So, if you are looking for a cool, funky super versatile family friendly MPV, I would say, the used Citroen C4 Picasso is the one for you!
