Product Overview

Citroen C8 is a large minivan in production from 2002 to 2014. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 2.0 to 2.9 liters. Essentially, it is the same vehicle as the Peugeot 807.
Like the Peugeot 807, the C8 has a decent range of diesel-heavy engine options, with a single petrol V6 that has proven to be rather unreliable. The automatic transmissions are also quite bad, and the vehicle has a poor suspension setup.
On the positive side, utility-minded owners will love the 2948L (104cu-ft) cargo space. The Citroen C8 also comes with a good towing capacity.
