  • Citroen C5 a good buy?

    European cars are generally more expensive to service, and tend to need more repairs as they get older and the kays climb. The Citroen is no more or less reliable than any of the other European brands, it doesn't have any glaring flaws that should be on concern to you, but it's worth getting a Citroen specialist to check any car you are considering buying. It's definitely recommended that you get an independent Citroen specialist to service the car, and it would be worth consulting a Citroen car club to get their recommendations on the person you choose to service your car.
