My new car; Citroën C-1

Today I finally got my new car; Citroën C-1.
Citroën??
Yep – French, but with a Toyota 3-cylinder engine…..



With an extreme low carbon emission of 109grams per kilometer….
So Sjeltur, being environmental friendly..??
Uh…. yeah – sure……. – but this is also EXTREMELY friendly for my wallet;
half of the insurance I paid before
ONE TENTH of the road tax (we pay overhere in Holland)
and driving approximately 20 kilometers on 1 liter of benzine…. – also a good thing.



c1True; it is a small car – but it totally doesn’t feel that way….
Though; the driving is incredibly “sporty” – almost like driving a real fast car……
But yeah – the sound of the 3-cylinder does help with that….

Furthermore; the trunk does not deserve that title = in Dutch – when something is small we almost always put “je” behind it…. – but even “trunkje” is sounding to big…… hahaha
A (dutch) case of beer will not fit….. – lots of six packs…?? yeah – sure…. ;)

My version is some sporty wheels on them….. white caps on the mirrors…. and a chrome exhaust pipe….; these.

Five doors – dark grey – airco – radio.  More stuff to come !!!
If you are interested in these cars;
* the Peugeot also has their own version – called 107
* Toyota has the Aygo
Both a little different from the C-1 = but same engine and interior….

More information you can also find on this forum – which also has an English section.
