Citroen C8 2.0 HDI 2006

5 star review

Having never owned a Citroen before and following other people carriers, Chrysler etc... I have found the C8 excellent. Reasonably economical, very comfortable, and the safety rating is excellent. Very difficult to fault at all, servicing very reasonable. I have the SX with electric doors etc... The kids love the car. The 1.9 diesel is a little sluggish but it’s a big car!! Would highly recommend taking a look.

Citroen C8 2.0 HDi SX 2004

1 star review

Comfy and spacious - however, the automatic gearbox is an absolute nightmare. Fault, after fault, after fault which Citroen aren’t interested in. Gearbox replaced at 30k under warranty. Now on 60k and it’s as bad as ever but out of warranty. The electronic management of the gearbox is a major design flaw. The manual should be better, although generally the fully integrated electronic control system in the car is just a design technique to get you to return the car to Citroen for regular (and very expensive) repairs. Car struggles to get better than 26mpg. And no, this isn’t a one-off fault report, a google search will reveal just how well known the fault on the AL4 auto gearbox is. Be prepared to spend £2k every 30K miles for a new gearbox.

Citroen C8 2.0 HDi 16V 120 SX 5dr

5 star review

Solid, safe and reliable family car. Cruises effortless and is extremely responsive. Smooth and quiet at high and low speeds. Very competitively priced and resale value should be respectable. Nice touches such as electric side doors mean access is unimpared and the space offered in this MPV is impressive.
