About the Citroën C3 Mk2

The second-generation Citroën C3 moved the model upmarket with improved interior quality and a focus on comfort over sporty handling. The VTR+ trim was a popular mid-range choice, offering a balance of equipment and economy for urban driving. Its most striking feature is the optional 'Zenith' panoramic windscreen, which extends back into the roofline to provide a 135-degree field of vision. While the 1.4-litre engine offers modest performance, the car is noted for its soft ride and light controls.
