The citi golf is a perfect illustration of the level of idiocy of the general South African.

i think after you buy a citi... for *****s and giggles, they should then show you how it does in a crash..

they can then buy it back from you and make R10000 each time :p

No,no ncap rating. The people who invented ncap where still sperms and eggs when the citi golf was designed.

No airbag is going to help you if you're torso and legs have become one with the engine bay. I doubt there's a safety cell in this car.

Edit I'm wrong:

A built-in steel safety cell and crumple zones keep its body sturdy, whilst negative roll radius and skid prevention keep you balanced when you're braking hard.

Oh please Im the most afraid of hairy idiots in double cabs and old ladies in big cars than I am of Citi drivers!!!
Besides that if a citi crashes into you they "might" absorb all the impact so you still safe...

When i see a citi pull up next to me at a robot i immediately open the window and scream: "I'm going to turn here okay?"
Otherwise the idiot will try and race me even if i pull away gently, for him its rally time all the time, my fear is not the race but the bubblegum chewing girlfriend he has next to him... thats someone's daugter you know.

A car with or without ABS still will be a safe car as long as the driver keeps in mind the road conditions.

If it's wet, drive slower. If it's dark, drive slower. If you're tired, pull over and rest.

Besides, it gives a false sense of security to some people thinking they will be able to stop within an impossible distance when sniffing your exhaust fumes at extremely close range whilst doing 120km/h on the highway...
