    Bought one for my wife as a stop gap following a disastrous Mercedes A class purchase, here I am 8 years later now using it as my own daily driver for work. It’s taking a hammering now but is perfect for all the stop start driving I have to do and I can park it in tiny spaces my 7 seater wouldn’t fit. £120 per year insurance, zero tax, cheap parts and easy to service. Repair cost in 8 years = one new battery, £40, new seat belt £30. New interior door handle , £12.

    I love these little C1/107/Aygo's... Fabulous value for those who just want honest, reliable transport...

    I picked one of these up for a friend he bought for he’s daughter, I drove it back 30 miles. For a 1.0 engine it handled motorways speeds effortlessly. They are surprisingly Spacious

    I just bought a 2011 Citroen C1 for £1,000. Full MOT, Full service history. Cracking little car! Rev them out in the long gears, and they're nowhere near as slow as some people will claim. That's a bargain you have right there. And working on these is so simple. I bought a new clutch for £36 and fitted it in two hours. Mine has no CL or EW either - these are the ones to go for! Lighter and less to go wrong in such a basic car. I wanted an early model with no PAS but couldn't find one. Love your channel, and natural, laid back style. Hoping to see your subs count grow and grow!

    Great video. I've got a 107, not only are they a hoot to drive (like a street legal go-kart) but they're simple to work on and parts are pocket money prices. Next time you have that rear bumper off sort the gaskets on the vents on the back panel. Yours look shot and are a notorious water entry point into the rear wheel well.

    I've just picked up a 107 for a first car, and after 2 days I noticed the previous owner had a rubber mat and a fabric mat in the rear foot well, and the floor was soaked, also had rattly hubcaps, so I bought a full set of new seals from x8r online, and some new hubcaps, and seems to have done the trick, runs like a dream, really pleased with it, it's a great little first car!

    Got one of these recently as I have to sadly sell my fiesta due to this stupid ULEZ zone extension. Very cheap to run and very reliable. I used to have the Peugeot 107 as my first car and can agree

    Excellent, love the videos. I'm currently looking for a city bug as a run around and a foil for my Range Rover. Look forward to more content.
