Two new Citroens were launched to the Irish market, as the French marque's Irish importer, Gallic distributors works to improve on a disappointing 2006 for the double-chevron badge.
The C4 Picasso 5-seat is a companion piece to the 7-seat version which we've already tested (see www.drivemagazine.ie/roadtests for more) and comes in at a base price of €26,400 with standard-fit ESP and traction control, panoramic windscreen, 7 airbags, electronic parking brake, hill-start assist and cruise control.
Oddly enough, this is still not a replacement for the ageing Xsara Picasso 5-seat MPV, which remains on sale at the bargain bucket price of €23,495. It's identical to its 7-seat brother to drive, just with more rakish rear styling and the same gorgeous interior.
The second new model is the all-new Dispatch van, which as before, is shared with Peugeot (the Expert) and Fiat (the Scudo). The maximum allowable payload is now up to 1,200kg and it can be had in long and short wheelbase forms, with standard or high roof.Prices start from €21,250.
