Citroen going back to more funky designs! Great!

I'm sorry man, but the C-3 ain't replacing the Saxo. It's bigger then the Saxo and is positioned between the Xsara and the Saxo. C-2 which comes in spring is going to replace the Saxo.
The Citroën range is moving upwards and this operation will be complete when C4 replaces the Xsara at the end of this year/early 2004 and C-6 being the top car mid 2004. Therefor the C4 is positioned between the Xsara and the Xantia. The C-5 is positioned between Xantia and XM and C6 will fill in the top range gap, above the XM so to say.

The C3 nevertheless looks very cute although the panoramic roof option - as being advertised by Citroën in TV commercials - is still not available due to technical problems. The 1.4 HDI 16V are the ones to have
