Most Helpful Review

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

Still a beast in its segment!!

Feel like it is one of the best cars,great build quality and dynamics. It is only the service, costly parts & maintenance that seems to to have let it down. But I have heard and read many reviews from the owners who have really loved to have owned this car and provided great feedback. Only the resale value is a matter, if fiat could continue to provide services, no denying the fact that this car can yet beat all it's rivals and be passw customer's delight.
