2022 Citroen C3 Aircross 1.2 PureTech 110 C-Series Edition 5dr MPV PETROL Manual

Description

So, I’ve been driving this Citroen C3 Aircross for a few years now, and it’s honestly been a solid little car — especially for the kind of stuff I do. It’s got that classic Citroen blend of practicality and a bit of character.

It’s a 1.2 PureTech engine, manual transmission, and it’s the C-Series Edition, which means it’s got a few of those nice touches — like the 3D rear lights, black roof bars, and body-coloured door handles. The alloy wheels are 16-inch X Cross in full black, and the interior’s got that soft-touch dash with a white text LCD instrument cluster — not flashy, but clean and easy to read.

Inside, everything’s pretty well thought out: heated folding door mirrors, electric windows with one-touch operation, a driver’s seat that’s height adjustable, and the steering wheel is too — so it’s comfortable whether you’re driving in the city or on a longer journey. The front seats have headrests that adjust individually, which is handy for kids or if you're sharing the car with someone tall or short.

Safety-wise, it’s got a full suite: ABS, ESC, airbags (front, passenger, and curtain), hill start assist, and even a lane departure warning. The DAB radio is good, with 6 speakers, and there’s a coffee break alert — which I’ve actually used a couple of times, especially when I’m on long drives.

There’s also cruise control with speed limiter, traffic sign recognition, tyre pressure monitoring, and rear parking sensors. The fog lights are built into the front bumper, and the lights are all LED — from the headlights to the daytime running lights.

The boot has a good amount of space, and I keep a couple of spare kits in there — one for the puncture repair kit, which is handy. The glovebox is closeable, and there’s storage in the doors and centre console.

I’ve kept it well maintained, and it’s been driven mostly on the roads around Dunoon, Argyll and Bute — which means it’s seen some real Scottish weather, but it’s still running strong.

It’s got a bit of character, not flashy, but it does what it needs to. I’m not selling it for a big sum — it’s £9,800.10 — but it’s been a reliable car for daily commutes, weekend trips, and just getting around.

If you’re looking for a reliable, practical car with a bit of personality and good safety features, this one’s been a solid fit for me.

No warranty, no fancy marketing — just a real car, in a real place, with a real owner.
