Citroen C2 1.4HDi VTR Diesel Hatchback...

The Citroen C2 carries on where its predecessor, the Saxo, left and is a neatly packaged, easy to drive and affordable small hatchback. It's also well equipped and cheap to run, so makes an ideal choice as a first car. There are some neat touches like a split-opening hatch and a paddleshift gearchange option on certain models. In 2008 the model was facelifted with a new front bumper and grille while equipment levels were upped.

The C2 comes with a decent engine line up, starting with the 60bhp 1.1-litre. This entry-level model is cheap to run and fine for town work, but really lacks power on the motorway and needs to be worked hard to get decent performance. The 1.4-litre is a better choice for drivers who spend more of their time on dual carriageways plus it's the only engine to be offered with Citroen's Stop-and-Start technology which saves fuel. The 1.6-litre 16v engine is the most potent in the C2 range with 110bhp (this was later upped to 125bhp) and is the only engine that's fairly relaxing to drive. The sole diesel is the 1.4-litre HDi with 70bhp. It's quite noisy and not overly quick - managing the 0-62mph sprint in 13.5 seconds, but it is very frugal and capable of an impressive 66mpg.
