The CITROEN C1 AIRSCAPE (2014-22) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.0 VTI SS 68 EU5 FLAIR is a small, three-door city car with a folding fabric roof, giving it an airy feel without demanding much parking space. It sits among affordable hatchbacks, aimed at drivers who value easy urban motoring over family-sized practicality. With its compact footprint, light controls and frugal 1.0-litre petrol engine, the C1 suits city commutes, errands and first-time drivers, while the Airscape roof adds open-air fun on sunny trips. It is less suited to rear-seat adults or bulky luggage, so it suits smaller households best on most everyday journeys. In mycarcheck.com checks, three examples across three VINs averaged £4,100 in private-sale value, 54,000 miles and 1.7 previous keepers; annual mileage averaged 9,000. This small sample is indicative, not a market-wide verdict. Against the Toyota Aygo and Peugeot 108, the C1 feels cheerful, economical and easy to park in town.
