Citroen C5

The buying experience was very bad, the driving experience was ok, service and maintenance also poor. Simply a waste of money, not a great vehicle for driving, and mileage is too bad compared to this segment.

Audi is best

Simply superb on this price range .In this price segment all other cars don't provide such type of facility as well as comfort. There is no lack on performance in either city or highway .It looking so beautiful and it's design is in an another level .Hence,If you have think for a car undoubtedly go for this.
