2010 Citroen C4 Picasso reviews

Citroen C4 Picasso 1.6 hdi vtr+ 2010

I got this C4 Picasso 1.6 hdi vtr+ in January 2010, brand new, 13 weeks ago on mobility. A fantastic car on fuel and a good car to drive, getting 58 mpg, but now for the bad news. After 661 miles the gearbox started playing up, I took it to the Citroen dealer at Derby. It had to have 3rd and 4th gear synchro and it has been stripped and fixed. I have done now 1118 miles and guess what? It’s broken down again and the gearbox has to be stripped again to have exactly the same fault repaired again. 3rd and 4th sync to be replaced again under Citroen’s warranty. It’s still in the garage to date as 30th April. Out of the 13 weeks of owning this 59 plate C4 Picasso it’s been upto now altogether 4weeks in the Citroen dearlership, Bristol Street Motors. My advice is don’t buy a Citroen. Has anyone else had this problem or is it just me?
