Superb review of a very classy SUV guys !! Citroën is back on track making quirky and polarizing cars with avant-garde tech.
Glad you liked it, Robert 👍 there’s some interesting things coming from the PSA Group this year.
@@PlanetautoUK Tell me more.
The merger of PSA and FCA for one thing, and the acquisition of Vauxhall for another 😎 still waiting on details about new ev’s, so we will update as soon as we can!
Great review, thanks.
Glad you liked it! *Annabelle
Just watched c5 premier, again in my opinion another great review. First time I have seen Ben in the driving 💺 and making the review look so easy to do. Great car but as you must know it is a Citroën. What a team effort, cheers Gerry.
Thank you, Gerry. It’s actually Michael in the driving seat for this one!
@@PlanetautoUK sorry Ben when I received my message yesterday saying Ben had a xsara for 17 years I found myself wondering why a young man had one😂👏due to the fact I just turned 57 on Saturday the 13th. I am smiling to myself while texting you both. Sorry Michael now I know. Another quick one the new c4 cactus has the same acoustic windscreen and door glass as the c5. Definitely smitten with c4. Have a good night, cheers, Gerry.
Happy Belated Birthday, Gerry! We agree about the C4 Cactus 🌵
I am getting a used C5 Aircross Flair Plus 1.5 BlueHDI Auto in the same colour as your test vehicle. It is lovely to drive. Thanks for your great review.
Very nice, and thank you for your kind words, enjoy Sharon
Nice review guys.
Thank you Colxdark
Another great review!!!! Micheal made me want to jump into this car and relax! It looks so comfortable and calm inside, while the exterior is wow wow wow,ma proper Citroen that stands out in a good way!!!
Absolutely could travel many many miles in this car. Love the stand out looks 😁😁 glad you enjoyed the review Matt!
Getting the flair plus with the 1.6 petrol...in white with red trim!
Great vehicle, and colour too, enjoy
It's good to see a review with a realistic perspective and not the usual from other car journalists. I wondered if there is an option for heated front seats. Can't find them on the spec list on the Citroen spec list. Thanks. Dean
Thank you for the feedback Coogy, we’ll have a look at our spec sheet and see if we can find out.
No, not on any of the trims or as an additional option, thank you
Currently have a Skoda Yeti TDI 2 litre 4 x 4 DSG. We don't get the C5 Aircross in Australia for a couple of months. I will definitely get one. Yeah for Comfort as King - with French style. We will get the 1.6 turbo petrol 121 kW 240 Nm with the 8 speed auto in the 'Pure' and 'Shine' versions. I will forgo the 4 x 4 for the grip control 2wd. It will be great to have a big boot.
In Sydney I actually bought one of the last new C4 Cactus 1.2 turbo petrol with airbumps, leather and glass roof... the deal was too good to pass up.... and the Cactus has true Citroen character... We kept the Yeti..
I loved the air bumps, but I love quirky, concept cars always look so radical, then it’s released and looks far tamer, with the exception of i8, Yeti power, thank you Stephen
@@PlanetautoUK And my REAL Citroen is a 1990 2CV6 Charleston RHD which I got new as Tourist Transit and got it back to Australia 2 months before they stopped production.
It now has covered 285,000 kms... my 3rd new 2CV. 1982 Charleston. 1978 Club. All came home to Australia... 43 years and 550,000 kms is my 2CV total.
The Cactus is my 17th Citroen. The first was 50 years ago next month. A 1962 Aussie assembled ID19... My first of 7 DSs... last was a DS23 EFI 5 speed.
Ooo very nice, Classic Citroens have such great design lines, especially DS, what are your thoughts on Stellantis?
@@PlanetautoUK I am completely one eyed.... Nothing Moves You Like A CITROEN!.....
2 x IDs, DS21 hydraulic, D Super, ID20 Safari, DS21 EFI Pallas, DS23 EFI Pallas, new 1015 GS Cmatic, new GS 1220 Club, 1220 wagon, Euro lease GSA X1,
new CX Prestige EFI 5 speed, 3 x 2CV6s, Xantia Turbo Diesel, Euro lease C4 Cactus, new C4 Cactus....
Yes sir - Half a Century of Citroen addiction... huge fun... never boring... many friends around the world.... Life Member of Citroen Car Club of NSW... phew....
just added C5 Aircross (Shine model - black with black rims, red brake calipers) to include ‘09 C6 & ‘74 DS Super5 to my collection ...
Very nice! That’s quite a collection.
Good reviews, my wife suffers from Motion sickness and Citroens of old where not good in regards to sickness. Interesting to know what you think? Also why didn’t the French move the fuse board over when they made right hand drive, that’s annoying
Thank you Mike, yet they had done pioneering suspension systems 😀 it’s amazing how many cars have similar quirks.
I really miss the possibility to have the analog speed and rev dials 🤔 Is it possible to do an software upgrade to have this 🤔?
Great question, we’re thinking in a later model this maybe be added.
Planet Auto sounds like a good ide , meaning Peugeot 3008 has it , I believe , and for all I know , It’s the same system , just another layout !! Should really be possible as an upgrade 😉👍
Es la versión Shine o la versión feel? La del video?
Flair + Gracias
Love the review 😀 have you reviewed the new hybrid version ?
No, but we’ve just driven the C5X hybrid 😀 review coming soon - thank you MrGm
When it will launch in India andeasily availableô
In Q1 2021, sadly it was delayed, thank you
This is not the nappa leaether seats .. ( those are brown with massage function and only in option in the c5)
Ah ok, thank you
Why isn’t the C5 Aircross offered with LED headlights in the UK, even as an option when they’re offered in other markets where it’s sold? Here, we have to make do with old-fashioned *halogen* headlights - welcome to the 1990’s!
Some decisions are quite crazy when it comes to options in different regions, we’re looking forward to driving the hybrid, thanks Josh
The inbuilt dash cam is great, however 4 years on ,other manufacturers have chosen not to fit it as standard -shame!
Yes, and some have omitted front cameras too and gone with parking sensors only.
This is on the shortlist with the new Ford Kuga. Cant decide which...
We can imagine, both are good and they’ve just released info on a new C3 Aircross, meaning there may well be a new one in the works.
Buy a radio mic so we can hear you!
Interesting, we use a Rode Professional shotgun mic. We’d suggest checking your soundcard and or speakers, this is is the only comment referring to volume in the last 2 years, which is quite curious.
@@PlanetautoUK no it is on the video, tried a pc and a apple, the sound fades in and out throughout the video, sorry.
Ah interesting, thank you - and that is strange, if there’s any newer videos you’ve seen it would be interesting to know if those had the same issue.
@@PlanetautoUK no not yet, just found your channel, great work by the way. I will be watching more later, I am night time video watcher LOL.
Thank you Martyn, welcome - there’s lots to see and you’ll likely see a difference in say the Citroen one to the latest D Max offroad video, namely a new host, enjoy.
expect c5 aircross phev 4x4 ~!
Ooo or C5 Rubicon
wtf. 2021. it's exactly the same car, but now starting at £32000
Yes it is
Who are these two Gay motoring icons???
Well Dave, motoring icons we like that and yes we’re happy and gay or try to be, who wants sad car reviews, no one - ps Michael has now left and Ben and his wife are now the hosts. PS 1980 called and they want their comment back.
