Citroën C3
MONTH 2 By James Taylor
I LOVE THE C3’s interior, but it’s not without its fair share of ergonomic SNAFUs. Not least front cupholders you can’t actually it cups into. Anything taller than a izzy drinks can won’t physically it, because the space above it in the centre console is taken up by the starter button and an alcove that’s the exact shape to hold nothing at all. The trough-like door bins aren’t much help, either. Presumably the Parisian design team mostly drink espressos…
