When I was a kid , my father had Citoen Diane . I had soft roling roof , which when roled you just clamp above rear hatch (it was normal hatchback). For better roof support , it had between B pilars thick bar , on whick I can hold while standing on back seats. I was not fast, but it had good ground clearance , great for picnics and it was super comftable. If only Yugoslavia was not at sanctions at that time and we could buy engine oil and petrol with less than 50% wather, I would still drive it.
Good question. Britain converted to the metric system for weights and measures in the early 70's. However, it was always a slow and gradual process rather than an overnight change. For a reason that no one seems to know the answer to, fuel measures were converted to litres but miles per gallon persist. Maybe it was the cost of changing millions of road signs to kmh. We still have lots of examples of imperial and metric measures running in parallel.
Gallons are used for liquids while as in the case of grams per kilometer , thats used when measuring output of CO2 , Grams used for gasses and dry volumes. Basically the same reason you have Gallons for fuel ( 2.31 cubic inches ) and Dry Gallons ( roughly 2.69 cubic inches ) for dry commodities like grain in the states although I am not sure if you still use Dry Gallons.
Glovebox is tiny because the British have the steering at the right side and the fuses are still on the left. This is why only the right hand drive DS3 has this tiny glovebox. Wating for my DS3 hatchback and perhaps there are some small updates after French holiday at Citröen.
I'm sorry but this is not a cabrio!!! Citroen, you have ideas (C3 pluriel ) but you need to work on engineering and implementing them to customers' service not to show them as ideas only! Rebecca you made some very convincing points, once again!!!
We use grams per kilometre as we are part of Europe and thus the European union so we have to use their measurements however I believe that some parts of Europe use MPG. There you go the worlds most long winded answer ;-)
Excellent, no cupholders, that's what I want to hear. I've never understood this fascination that some reviewers have with cup holders..., total lack of imaginations. I mean, how many people do you know that get together with their friends for coffee .. in a car ?
The individual themselves or your front seat passenger might have/want a hot drink if on their travels. Really not hard to understand the purpose and usage of cupholders.
@@thesilentgametestr I well understand the purpose and use of cupholders. The point I'm making is that so many reviews put overmuch emphasis on the presence of, or number, or position of cup holders rather than the overall abilities of the car.
Again the glove box issue. Sorry but I can easily fit in my glove box, the manual, my papers, hammer, ice scratcher and my cd's. The audio system got completely forgotten which is a shame since it is pretty useful (aux,usb,bluethoot...) and good with the sub. I have to agree on the cup holders thing and the door storage compartments, that is pretty bad but even so the room in the back is also not that bad. I'm 6.2 and have been sitting in the back with a same size person in front and it was fine. I have to say that this review channel is pretty biased. Always saying that a mini is better and thus renders this car worthless... I say unsubscribe.
Who's going to buy this car? A single professional young woman that only goes away for weekends? Rebecca, would you buy this type of car? You are the target market!!
Why do you always pronounce cabriolet incorrectly? Lol! It's cab-RIO-lay, not cab-ril-ay Love your reviews so much though... I've just watched 20 in a row #SatNightIn
What's the point of this car? It's not really a convertible, just a retracting roof which blocks the rear view and the boot. And to make it worst, no place for bananas.
