Overall very nice car

This car is amazing. Features and comfort is also good. This car is budget friendly, company providing more features other than cars. Driving experience was very good for me. Nice car.

Citroen C3 Live 1.2 Petrol

Looks are stunning at this price range. Suspension is awesome. The second servicing was done recently. The base variant does not have a central locking feature. I got it installed in the aftermarket. Engine performance is also good. Mileage is around 19 With AC and Four passengers

Good car for those who looking for compact SUV segments

Very good deal, even in basic version we get almost all the feature, its a very comfortable front and rear rows sitting, build quality is also good since a ncap 4 rated car, coming to performance found little slow.
