Citroen - General pros and cons

[Venom Rush]

Hi guys/gals

I might end up buying a Citroen C4 Coupe. Just thought I'd ask you car enthusiasts about the pros and cons of having a Citroen.
So shoot away. I want to know as much as possible

Someone told me that Renault deals with Citroen servicing and parts. That got me thinking, since I know Renault are rather on the negative side of the fence when trying to acquire parts.

+1.

Citroen and Renault share a lot in France and a large number of the parts are the same.

The French cars are good cars.... but they don't survive well in SA. Especially customer service and reliability-wise....

I guess my decisions been made then. Bomb the Citroen!!!

A used french car - stay away.
BTW: i also know that Hyundai, Citroen and Tata share a servicing agent (or the same building...)
Having had a Hyundai, their service was really good and they fixed something quite easily.

Parts are murder to find/pay for.
