Citroen Xsara Picasso

Mine will probably have to be a factory order, does that still count towards their bonus. Do you think by haggling we might be able to beat the drive the deal price.

Have definitely decided that we do not need the 7 seat option, we would spend most of the time with the back seats out to get luggage room.

I have one...my advice, test drive one first. I was shocked by the turning circle or lack of it. Perhaps I was spoiled by my previous car,a Toyota Avensis.

I do like the elevated seating position but that's about it...oh, and it's got a big boot.

My OH is sick of me comparing it to our last car but I can't help it!

Check out this site before you commit yourself, I wish I had. It is mostly pro Picasso.

All citroen's have !!!!!! turning circles. I too think the driving postion is great but would go back to Fords if I could get the same size car for my money as you can with Citroen. They are not the best built cars though but like everything in life you get what you pay for.

All sales count towards dealer bonus

Also agree with the turning circle comment - we changed ours for a sharan and although much bigger has a much tighter turning circle making it easier to park despite the size.

Penny-Pincher!!

Hi

We have just bought one of these and is on order for the 1st September. We went for the 1.6HDi Exclusive 110BHP and got the electric sunroof. I am disabled and was able to get all the cashback and VAT exempt but had to have an adapted seat fitted (£800) but still got a further £2400 off:D After all the discounts, VAT taken off, part ex (very old banger)tax etc etc we paid just over 10k. 3 years o% too.

We are very pleased with this deal and even the car show in London 2 weeks ago couldnt match the deal we were offered through our local dealer;)

I am disabled so comfort a dn height was a main concern and the Picasso passed all tests for us and the miles you get per gallon is fantastic!

It looks like the C4 will come out sometime in this autumn, could you wait until this model has been out for a couple months? I bet there will be some deals on the curent Picasso by then. Alternitivelty as the Picasso is being replaced depreciation is likely to be greater in the next few years. Why not look for the best example of a of a 2-3 year old model where someone else has already taken the first hit.

Just read that the picasso is not going to be replaced by the C4 MPV - it will still be sold alongside as a budget alternative for a while so the price of the C4 is likely to be higher, and remain that way for a while.

Well the deed is done, have ordered my 2.0i Exclusive Automatic in Wicked Red via drivethedeal.com for the princely sum £12611. This price includes pearlescent paint and parking sensors. Dealer price was £13940.

Hi
If this helps the current model is going to stay on sale for another 2-3 years according to citroen...so plenty of time to make up your mind
