The CITROEN C3 (2002-10) 3DR PLURIEL CONVERTIBLE 1.6 16V 110 AUTO5 is a small, distinctive open-top car based on Citroen’s C3 supermini. In the UK it sits in the city-car and small-convertible niche, offering easier town driving and lower-key sizing than larger cabriolets, while its unusual roof gives it extra character. The 1.6-litre engine and automatic-style gearbox make this Pluriel appealing to drivers wanting a relaxed, characterful runabout rather than a conventional family hatchback. It suits couples, commuters and weekend users who value fresh-air motoring and compact dimensions; rear-seat space and roof versatility are less straightforward than in an ordinary C3, so inspect operation carefully. mycarcheck.com has recorded 152 checks across 101 VINs, a useful sample for this unusual model. Those checks show an average private-sale valuation of £500 and 82,000 miles; average annual use is 5,000 miles, with 5.25 previous keepers. Compared with rivals, its playful, open-air personality stands out.
