Picasso

Hello, I am buying a Citroen Xara Picasso: do someone suggest me if it is a good car? Someone know problems? Thanks

I've heard very little about the car, but I think it's good ;)

let me know how it goes, when are you buying it?

I will check tonight.

But hey, Claudia Schiffer likes it!:D Grrrrr.

You can get a Picasso in Canada? Where will you get it serviced?

I cant get one here, but I have british car mags that have ads with here in them.

I tought she only liked the Xsara and not the weird Picasso :confused:
The interior is pretty anyways. I think is redue at the end of the year

Buy the Picasso Exclusive if you can afford, it's pretty inside and with the big sun roof.

a friend of mine owns a Picasso for 2 years now and nearly 50.000 trouble free kilometers. in Europe they all get Aircon, ABS and 4 airbags. Loading capacity is also very good as is the modularity. Picasso's have a fine comfy chassis and they're easy on tyres as well. So should be trouble free.

Somebody of my family (living in belgium : huudo ;) ) bought a Picasso 1.8 last year and is satisfacted by it. I think it's a good car, unfortunately, you can't get the HDI 110, but "only" the 90.

PIcassos are awesome- especially with that little shoping trolley :D

A site I visit on a regular basis may help with regards to the picasso,

There is loads of info from radio crackle right through to updateing the computer.

my father own a picasso since 2 years, it's an HDi version...

it's a nice car, a little bit slow,but it's not important...very confortable and whit a lot of space inside...

The HDI 90 is not very fast indeed but there will be a 110 hp available next year (2004).

If you want you can drive it very fast :D , but the car don't like it :p

:D

good car indeed, and nice.

But alas, underpowered

A new 1.6 HDi 110 hp is expecting for early 2004 with a little restyling.

I realize there are no pics of this car ! ;)

i've driven a Picasso HDi and they dont hang around - fantastic ! hold the road surprising well. They seem to have a very good name too.
Well you have to try 'em out to the max when they are demo cars / demonstrators dont you, hehehe !!
Do you know that the Army run a fleet of Picasso's so thye got to good !!
i also have a Berlngo HDi as well as my Xsara VTS, having ahd 2 Saxo VTS's previously and the Berlingo also is no slouch by any means.
Its great to drive and easily does 110 MPH.

The Xsara VTS ? The 2.0 137hp or the 167hp ??

Welcome on the forum ! ;)

Xsara 2.0 Ltr - 167 BHP - having WRC tailgate spoiler & white 17" Speedline Turini's fitted thisa weekend - cant wait !!

Oh - & thanx for the welcome :biggrin:

This Xsara is excellent, nice engine, excellent handling, sporty. And with your kit, it must be nice..... any photos ? ;)

Aright Mate,
I Wouldnt Mind A Wee Look At The Pictures Aswell. Tried For Ages To Get A Red Xsara but Ended Up With Blue. Was Going To Get The Same Spoiler For Mine Till Some Wee Junkie Took A Key Down The Passenger Side. Good Luck This Weekend Mate.

hey what do you all expect with the picasso, it is a good car I have one, if you want speed go and buy a porche. The car is for the tough jobs

help i.m a maiden in distress - i have a 2003 plate 1.8 citroen xsara picasso exclusive, petrol engine, manual gearbox and the immobiliser has, for the second time in two weeks, stuck on. I have had it diagnostically tested at the local citroen main dealer and no fault was found(they are stumped about it as, after the testing it started to work again!) Any thoughts or solutions A.S.A.P please,please,please
