Show me - cool Citroen C3's

Looks like we will be getting a Citroen C3 tomorrow, so was looking for any way to make this thing look okay.

Have a picture of the modern muck

Here are some great C3s:

Yeah wish it was a Corvette, sadly we need small and boring, and the 205 seems to be "too old to use."

At least it will be better on fuel than the Corvette

Pretty sure it's a 206 underneath, and they're good cars, even lasting well. I've had 1.4 8v and 1.6 16v versions of those (still got the 1.4), and in four years the only real complaint i have is with idle control issues. The C3 uses the same system, so you'll wanna make sure it idles properly.

This is the 1.4 HDI which looks a bit more troublesome, but the car is cheap as chips, so worth a punt, not forgetting £20 a year for tax

There was a black one near me that was simply lowered on fairly small (15"s probably) wide chrome wheels with a reasonably chunky side wall tyre. I always thought it look quite smart. The slightly Bulbous tyre suited the rounded look of the rest of the car.

this is the closest google could get me

^^^that one works well for me. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for these, there is definitely something old and French about the styling. They don't look like anything else either. Lowered on suitable wheels, done
