Glorious Glanza a awesome car

Awesome car my first one used to have a car when my dad was around, the only thing is that the suspension is not up to the mark but after driving this car I will not buy any other brand than Toyota.

Citroen C3 Live 1.2 Petrol

Looks are stunning at this price range. Suspension is awesome. The second servicing was done recently. The base variant does not have a central locking feature. I got it installed in the aftermarket. Engine performance is also good. Mileage is around 19 With AC and Four passengers
