Loved this. Looking at buying one of the facelifted versions for my 2nd car. I keep looking at loads of similar cars like the corsa, ibiza etc but i just keep coming back to the ds3. Great review, glad i found the channel!

I'm looking to buy a DS3 with the 1.6 NA 120hp (I don't feel the need to get the THP 155). How does the motor behave on the motorway at 75mph ? In 5th gear what is engine rev at motorway speed and is it noisy in the cabin ? What is the fuel economy like at around 60mph ?

Great comments about what the car us like to drive etc., but I get very similar information from reading the reviews from 2011. What I really want to know is about the potential financial liabilities now that depreciation has made the car affordable for me. This would be a great addition to future videos please.

Great informative review, only thing putting me off is the lack of storage and cup holders inside the cabin. Especially when coffee is essential on motorway journeys!

We would suggest one of the "beer hats" but instead of cans, insert coffee? Then this may well be the perfect car!

I love mine. 2019 Auto. Nippy as hell. Refined but also fun. Agree about the armrest (although I do use it on long ass motorway drives). The cup holder thing doesn’t bother me. No one is allowed to eat or drink in my car. Haha.

The engines are sometimes a weak point - have a Google of "Prince engine problems", but generally they are okay. The rest of the mechanicals are broadly shared with other Citroën models so are quite easy to get parts for.

The non-turbocharged engines should be more reliable, but as always do your due diligence by checking service history and ensure you've done your own research.

I’ll tell you how Dacia still makes money on those , they are simply a bigger piece of junk that you are willing to accept. Especially after you bought it. People will notice down the road that reliably costs money. Show me a 20 y old Dacia, I’ll show you a 20y old BMW and a 18y old Audi and you can compare.

Comparison is irrelevant. Dacias are very simple cars. There's not much to go wrong with them. BMWs, even the 20 year old ones, can have lots of kit, but also lots to go wrong. Also 18 years ago was about the time manufacturers started adding direct injection to their cars, so carbon buildup will be an issue for most. Meanwhile Dacias with their simple multiport injection can run on cheap gasoline with no issue
