barns Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 Still not got my c4 yet ,was due ast monday but never turned up still in France,anybody else have any delay's. Can't complain too much dealer has been superb by giving us a new motor whilst it eventually arrives.Not too fond of the car though a c3 exclusive 06 plate in Black.Only done 45miles.They have gone to town on the spec level including full leather seats all the gadgets but its an automatic like driving a bleeding milk van...You can put it into semi auto using paddles on steering wheel but this was only fun for an hour.Wouldn't mind a c4 in this spec level though cause its superb....................BUT NOT AN AUTO................................

Mat Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 The only delay for me when getting my C4 back in July, was that i got stuck waiting for an estate agent to come to my flat, before i could drive up to pick up my new C4. It was all ready and waiting when i got there in the afternoon. However, i chose a standard one, that was already in stock. Quote
wozza Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 I drove a base model C3 it was awful the cheapness of it compared to the C4 was something else. And it had a 1.1 I swear to god it would not cruise at 70 on the motorway in 5th with the slightest hill i had to drop it into 4th or it just kept getting slower. Quote
barns Posted May 15, 2006 Author Posted May 15, 2006 The c3 is a bit of a queer fish....This exclusive has all the toys but still looks plain,not going to impress anyone,cant make my mind up if id have one as a shopping trolley or not,but for the money think id go for something else.folk at work dont like the shape but i dont think the what car ratings of 2 stars is fair,it drives ok just boring to look at.. Pick up the C4 tomorrow (tues) can't wait................ :blink: Quote
wozza Posted May 16, 2006 Posted May 16, 2006 Enjoy the car today mate let us know how you get on. And how much you enjoy your new car. And since you have had a C3 to drive you will deffinately appreciate the handling differences etc it will make the C3 look possitively awful in comparison. And welcome to the C4 group properly lol :blink: Quote
barns Posted May 16, 2006 Author Posted May 16, 2006 Picked up car today first impressions are very good like the shape looks ace on the outside,handles superb compared to last vauxhall,even give the centred clocks the thumbs up,only real downside so far where the hell does the front end finish?Have to park up to a concrete wall at work and will be hard to judge where the bumper is,but very early days so will get use to that i hope.The seat trim has been altered from one i test drove looks better but not sure how hard wearing it is thats one for time but at the moment chuffed to bits with it.shame it p##sed it down within an hour of picking it up filthy already....

Stuey Posted May 17, 2006 Posted May 17, 2006 only real downside so far where the hell does the front end finish?Have to park up to a concrete wall at work and will be hard to judge where the bumper is,but very early days so will get use to that i hope. hehe its still guess work for me, mine has been into walls and railings countless times :blink: Quote
stu Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 Worst bit is catching the kerb under the front of the bloody C4 :blink: Quote
