CITROEN C5 (2001-08) 5DR ESTATE 2.2 HDI SX

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

CITROEN C5 (2001-08) 5DR ESTATE 2.2 HDI SX is a large diesel family estate, with more load space than a hatchback and less bulk than an SUV. Its roomy cabin and boot suit family life, holidays and everyday carrying. In the UK, it offers a value-focused alternative to Mondeo, Vectra and Passat estates.

Comfort and space define the C5 estate: it feels relaxed rather than sporty. The 2.2 HDi diesel suits longer journeys, making it a practical choice for families and commuters needing a versatile load-carrier. The SX is a straightforward family-car option, but on an older example, condition and maintenance deserve close attention.
