    I had a Toyot Aygo version for about 10 months. Now I'm a 6ft 3" rugby player at 115kg, and I took my 6ft 1" 130kg team mate with me to match and my wife found it very comical. Had loads of space and was surprisingly nippy! Great car.

    These are great, that engine is bullet proof! I actually went to a breakdown on one, wouldn’t start, and when it did it ran poor. The bloke only had it a month. Turns out he’d been putting diesel in it. And the mixture had fallen under the petrol : diesel ratio and packed up, so I put 20L of super unleaded and it went. And he drove her back to Manchester from south wales, topping it up with petrol every now and then 😂😂😂

    Great video once gain Matt. You really can't go wrong with a cheap, little car. My wife and I live in Kyoto city and we bought a 14 year old Suzuki Alto with a little 657cc engine last year, which is perfect for blasting round the city. It also surprised me though when i took it on a 3 hour highway blast back to my wife's hometown. We bought it with just 47,000km on the clock for the equivalent of around 700 pounds. Its automatic, has 4 electric windows, A/C, electric, folding and heated mirrors. It's an absolute pleasure to drive, never put a foot wrong (or wheel) and even after 15 years it still smells new. As much as I would love to drive around in a Range Rover, or at least something bigger, until we move out of the city, then I will be an advocate for the city car.

    After decades of owning all sorts of cars & motorbikes, I bought myself a 107. I was expecting miserable driving ahead of me but the exact opposite was true. I absolutely love it. It's not fast and the handling isn't great or in any way inspiring yet despite this, it's just so much fun. It feels like I'm driving a little buggy and I love the stripped out basic character (I didn't think I would.) It's refreshing to be rid of all the android crap, the gadgets, the touch screen bling and all the driver aids. I love just having a steering wheel, a gearbox, a radio and nothing else. I feel like I'm driving a car again rather than piloting a computer on wheels. The radio sounds tinny but I'm not going to change it because it just adds to the character of the car. It actually reminds me of my youth in the 1980s and my first cars from that decade. Oh and the exhaust and engine tone is a peach. The engine has so much spirit. No power but bags of character. The advantages of having no power is that you enjoy driving at slower speeds. It's pretty pointless having a 350bhp monster for the sort of driving I do around town anyway.
    My advice to anyone considering buying one is do it. Just remember you're not buying a performance car or a luxury car. Go in with the right attitude and you'll love it.
    I thought I might get bullied on the road in my 107. It happens. I can ride a 125cc scooter in the morning & be treated like shit by drivers yet I get on my 1000cc Kawasaki in the afternoon and the traffic parts to let me through. Interestingly people don't bully me in the 107. I think it's because they don't see me as a threat or a challenge. They probably think I'm just some middle-aged dude in his shopping car with no interest in cars or driving. They're wrong but that's fine by me.
    Conclusion: A great car for people who like cars.

    These are amazing little cars - In 2017 a few mates and I joined the c1 racing club who race the Citroen variants in 3/4/6 and 24hr Enduro events - we bought a 2012 cat N donor and the engine in that car has done 4x24hr races with no issues (they all have to be kept to std spec, no tuning to keep costs down) - you can take them up the rev range to the limiter which at Silverstone, on the Hangar Straight, depending on which gearbox you have, gives an indicated 103mph in third!! And providing you don’t try to use engine braking (which you don’t need to) and over rev them on a downshift they don’t break.
    They are so much fun that team mates of mine who have collections of supercars have bought one to hoon around in, they are as you say the latter day Mini - they do however rust and one we bought recently (2010 variant) was like a sieve - probably a coastal car!!

The damp may be because of damaged flaps behind the rear bumper if it wasn’t fixed properly. New seals for the doors and regular silicone spray sorts then]m out. It’s fully galvanized so not structural problems! Had this ours for 6 years and the only cost outside servicing has been brake disks and pads! Love the roller-skate!

    This was my first car. C1, 2006, no aircon, no Bluetooth, manual roll down windows, water leak, door handles snapped off, cracked hazard button, you name it. I had it almost 2 and half years, was rusty no doubt but never failed me in terms of never starting. Defo spent more money on it than I should but it taught me real life regular driving after I passed. I drove from Yorkshire to Disney land paris and back in that car, no issues at all. It really didn't want to stop going.
    One day as I was topping up the oil I noticed orange gunk splattered all over the engine bay from the coolant - radiator - terminal. I thought I'm over this now, so begrudgingly sold it (I called it Stevie) and sobbed like a fool when Stevie was driven away. Still gutted 7 months later but I have another great reliable car, Hyundai i10 which actually has a/c and electric windows😂never forget Stevie though 😭

    I have a 107 facelift with a semi auto gear box, bought it for £2,200 with 41k milage and I've had it for a year and I honestly can't fault it! It was meant to get me through my test and on the road but I honestly couldn't see myself without it now!

    My son has had his 08 C1 for about a year. We had great fun together searching for his first car. I was sad to see him take it off to Uni because I don't get to take it out for a spin. For such a small engine they've got some punch and the ride is surprisingly smooth. He loves it but don't you just love your first car. You gave a nice summary. Perfect first car or little run around.

    For a little bit more money you could get a 107 with two slippers in the trunk.

    I changed a clutch in a C1 varient last month and it was literally the definition of adult Lego, they’re so easy and refined to work on, just a shame that they’re also refined. But as a first car stand point, I can see why they appeal

    These cars are great, the issue with the leaks is the rear back lights we sold one to a customer and she kept bringing it back as when it rained the spare wheel bay would be full of water, so we stripped everything out the back and I sat in the back whilst someone jet washed the back of the car and it came in trickling down the back lights!!!!

    A mate had an Aygo and it was like the Tardis. I'm 6'2" and I fit in the back. The trade off was that the boot was comically small, but it was remarkably spacious. She also drove it like she stole it and it never went wrong.

    We had a few of these and yes, we now miss the simplicity of basic motoring. A Twingo 2 TCE GT holds that candle currently here, but that car is way too loaded 😊. The original Aygo and its badge-friends may, once, become classics! Last of the simple ones....

    Lovely little motors. I've had a Toyota Aygo for nearly 2 yrs, it's my 14th car 😜 I had to laugh when you said about the indicator stick, I've just replaced mine. I've had my dad in it, we're both over 6ft and there's tons of room in them, it's like the Tardis. This is no word of lie, it's getting over 55 to the gallon and I live near North Penines, so it's very hilly. Lovely little run about.

  • @Ro32da72

    A trip down memory lane this one (for many of us by the looks of the comments!) - I had a 2009 C1 and put 100k on it in 4 years. Nothing broke. It swallowed people and work stuff on a regular basis and was just a brilliant, versatile, reliable little buzz-box. I think the only possibly criticism I could make is, it was pretty noisy; there was no money spent on sound-proofing. I'd have another one in a heart-beat, and it's easy to see why they're good sellers.

  • @Biggles

    I totally agree, these are brilliant little things. Rust is starting to kill off earlier examples, but that's life. The main weakness on the engine in my view is the small oil sump. As you say, people don't service them. They do tend to burn a bit of oil so if you never check, the engine will very quickly run low and cause damage. Water pumps alwas fail around 80-100k miles, but it's a cheap fix if you catch the fault in time. Last one I bought was £250. The reason it was so cheap was it was leaking petrol. The cause of the leak turned out to be the fuel line came unclipped from the sender, presumably from someone jumping on the back seat (a known issue). Clutches only last around 40k miles, but it's not a big job to replace.

    • @ianfrost3529
      @ianfrost3529 Год назад +3

      My wife had a 2 tronic we had to change the clutch at 70k
      But you need the computer to put the actuator in to sleep mode before you do the clutch.
      And back windows on five door model when the bonding brakes down and falls out.
      But they are a great first car

    • @indymae
      @indymae Год назад +1

      mines at 70k no issues so far! my service history is fantastic really. i wanna say i used to drive approx 110-130 miles a week on £25/£30 petrol which was a blessing as a sixth form student & working 5/6 days a week. very economical; i could not have asked for a better first car & it's great to learn general maintenence, etc. i'm hoping to learn how to service it when i'm back from uni. how would i keep an eye out for water pump failure?

    We’ve had our 2014 Peugeot 107 for about 4 years, and it’s a great little car, really nippy, and mobile…
    Other good thing is that the engine hp means we don’t need to pay car tax, due to its low emissions…really reliable, and has never failed it’s MOT, not even an advisory so far…
    Only slight issue is that, if you don’t take it for drive for about 10 days in cold weather (as we’re using other car) then battery dies, so have to recharge it…but that’s more our own fault…
    Slight update on the battery, we've since replaced the battery, and now no longer have the above issue.

  • @J4cko999
    @J4cko999 Год назад +1

    Have always said that about these being the new version of the original Mini, but they are way better in so many ways, Minis used to rust before your eyes yet these dont seem to suffer, we had one for the kids to learn in, changing the front disks and pads was cheaper than doing the ones on my mountain bike. Neighbour has a 2008 one, it just sits outside, year in year out and never changes. See care companies running them, they do huge mileages, never really heard of one breaking, clutches on the earlier ones are a weak spot and the indicator stank, other than that, very little.
