The C4 is Citroen's entrant in the highly competitive Golf/Focus Class. It's available as a neat 5 door hatch or a stylish 3 door Coupe. High-tech styling hides conventional Citroen mechanicals. The car has an excellent safety record.
The C4 features a remarkable interior with a fixed steering wheel centre and translucent instruments. It handles well. Has a good range of engines and the Citroen badge and image have kept prices soft.
The C4 diesel engines are excellent. In terms of driving they are superior. However the bargain hunter will go for the petrols. They are cheaper to buy and service. The early diesels will be reaching very high mileages and reliability could be an issue.
The best choice for a secondhand C4 is likely to be a 1.6 petrol in the most basic spec you can find, just make sure it has air -con. The 1.6 offers good economy of up to 40MPG and a decent turn of speed. It will be very cheap to service and insure.
Pay £7100 for a 3 year old 1.6 petrol in SX trim. A similar 1.6 diesel will cost around £1600 more irrespective of which engine output (90 or 110BHP) you choose.
The best time to buy is at three years old when the first MOT is due. Depreciation is heavy but consistent on the car.
Used Car Expert recommends that you try to buy after a big drop in depreciation and before the next one, so with the current Citroen C4 you would aim to buy a 1 year old and sell it before it is 2 years old.
Diesel Citroen C4 cars lose most over the first year (from new to 1 year old), so that is the best ‘nearly new’ buy in terms of car for money.
Diesel Citroen C4 cars lose least between years 1 and 3, so this is the best buy if you want to keep the car for a while.
Diesel Citroen C4 cars lose least between years 2 and 4, so that is the best buy on older cars.
