citroen c6 reviews by year of make: 2006 2007 2008 Read all reviews
The Citroen C6 stands out from the crowd. The striking front, the sleek roof and frameless doors, the speed-sensitive rear spoiler. A graceful aerodynamic profile that emphasizes energy and elegance. Space, light, ergonomics and comfort combine to create a luxurious interior, for class leading comfort.

Okay, it’s a 3.0 litre V6 and bound to be thirsty - or is it? As three litres go, the Citroen C6 is something very different to the upmarket luxury range of cars. It has a build quality that is equal to the German machines and innovative technology that surpasses them. Suspension, ride quality and handling is exemplary and it feels like those marvellous French carriages of yore. As for fuel consumption, as long as you have a light right foot, and that doesn’t mean you cannot enjoy the car’s performance, it is a winner and over long journeys comprising all types of roads, can easily return 28-30mpg. On a long motorway run at constant speeds around 65-70mph, expect 34mpg. When you have such luxuries as reclining and heated rear seats as well as the usual Citroen C6 toys, what more would you want from a truly grand tourer?

Put aside the snobbery of the BMW/Merc/Audi masses, this is a head turner. You can smugly drive in refined comfort knowing that you have saved £10- £15k on similar spec on ’’der rippoffs’’. So the petrol version .its not the most economical to run, buy 18 month to 2 years old with low mileage so you don’t take the depreciation hit, and get it converted to gas! This isn’t just driving - this is Citroen driving at its best. You’re not just driving a car - you are driving a piece of art and motoring heritage. You will want journey’s to last longer and you will always opt for the long way home! The need to rush leaves you when you enter the cabin space but there is plenty to help you if you are pushed for time. The power unit roars and purrs and you might not notice that gear change (it really is that smooth). Beware the seat heaters - they’re hot!
