Finally picked one!

[Dr Who]

The Current DS range has some very good looking cars, that looks very nice inside, I hope the build quality is good as well.

 

[Skidder]

Always liked the look of the DS3, especially the interior.



How can you post something like this without accompanying pictures

I think standing at the window pretending to wash dishes while oggling is risky enough without going telephoto on her ass

 

[Zillio]

Looks nice in black.

Do they not do a faster one?

It does like 0-60 in 7 seconds ish, quite fast really...

The answer to the question is yes, they do do a faster one.

 

[fonzee]

Love these, very nice

yup..but who in their right mind would get the one with the orange wheels?!!

 

[HummuH1]

Didn't realise they were that expensive.

Really nice looking car though that DS3. Enjoy!

 

[West]

Seriously wetting my appetite for mine!

Mines gonna be Polar White with a black roof, Leather, Nav (Most of the gubbins)

Very nice looking car though mate!

 

[JDMaverick]

I saw one of these the other day and wasn't too keen on it.

But looking at your's...very nice

 

[MrMoonX]

They look great, but it will break, I had a brand new c3 in 2003 12 times it broke in the first year with various things from wipers to ECU

 

[Goksly]

10 years is a long time... I hope they have improved! I was worried buying French, but no matter what car you hear horror stories. Fingers crossed!

Congrats OP, a nice looking car imo! It must accelerate reasonably well

 

[v0n]

Just me that thinks 18.7k is an awful lot for a small Citroen hatchback?

They do the racing version, which is ~200bhp, but the cost is a lot more (~23k iirc).

£18.7k is a lot

It is a good looking car but it is a lot of money. It's at least 2 grand more than Focus ST2 and 3 grand more than Octy VRS...

 

[Jono8]

It's at least 2 grand more than Focus ST2 and 3 grand more than Octy VRS...

Both of which i would rather have than a DS3 racing

 

[Adam]

Fine, both of them are better cars but equally have higher running costs and will not be brand new. Perhaps the OP got a good finance deal or some other reason why he favoured a new car over something 2nd hand.

 

[tom_nieto]

Really like the DS3, but I definitely would have got a brighter interior or exterior (one or the other). They're really suited to funky colour combinations. No idea how they drive though!

I tried to convince my GF to part with her money on one of these but is heading for a fiat 500 instead.

 

[Eliot]

I like it. Think you did quite well really.
Not slow these.

 

[wingman]

I tried to convince my GF to part with her money on one of these but is heading for a fiat 500 instead.

I'd say the Fiat 500 is the better choice.

However back to OP, glad you went for the same colour combinations. Many seem to spec contrasting combinations with the DS3, almost refreshing to see otherwise.

 

[matthab]

I looked at one and took it for a test drive, i just couldnt get comfortable in it and it doesnt have any cup holders.

Took a Seat Cupra TSI out and fell in love with it.

It doesn't have to be telephoto on her ass, a wide-angle of the whole scene would be just as good.
