    RELIABILITY AND QUALITY RATING:

    All three of the sister models are built at a Toyota-designed factory, so the C1 is put through the same quality benchmarking that has earned the Japanese company an excellent reputation for reliability. Both engines are proven units, too. Panel gaps are even and tight, and there are other indications of good perceived quality - such as doors which shut with an agreeable thunk. Soft-touch plastics in the cabin aren't in evidence, but at least Citroen has eschewed using sombre black materials; the light grey dashboard brightens up the cabin somewhat, and the seat fabrics are perfectly serviceable.
