Citroën C2

The Citroën C2 may no longer be in production, but it still holds a place in the market for those in search of a budget-friendly, compact car that’s well-suited for city commuters and young drivers, thanks to its compact size and manoeuvrability.

There are plenty of Citroën C2s available in used car supermarkets, and almost 15,000 still registered across the UK.

The C2 was launched in 2003 as a successor to the Citroën Saxo, and became a popular choice in the supermini category before production ended in 2009 – with Citroën lining up the DS3 as a replacement in 2010.

If you’re looking for a used Citroën C2 online, there are a variety of different engine options available for you. For those who prefer a petrol engine, there is the nippy 1.1-litre engine, the mid range 1.4-litre petrol engine, and a 1.6 litre engine that caters for those needing a little more power. The C2 is also available with a 1.6 diesel engine, which delivers an impressive 66 mpg.

During its production run, the C2 was received with mixed reviews by experts and consumers. Some saw it as an affordable, great value supermini that was fun to drive – Top Gear even awarded the 1.6 litre petrol variant a ‘Hot Hatch’ award back in 2004. Others found the build quality and interior comfort to be lacking compared to competitors in the category – especially when it came to rear legroom

In terms of safety, the C2 was awarded a four-star Euro NCAP rating when the car was launched in 2003, and all models came equipped with basic standard safety features like airbags, with more advanced safety features like speed warning systems in higher specification models.

As for technology, you should only expect to find a relatively basic setup in any used Citroën C2. The entry-level models all came with manual windows and a standard radio, with higher end trims offering additional features like a CD player and remote central locking.

In summary, the Citroën C2 may no longer be rolling off the production lines, but it remains a viable option for those looking for an affordable, fuel-efficient used supermini. It’s a practical choice for city driving if you can find one to suit your needs
