Citroen DS5 DSport Hybrid - Am I mad?

[1a35]

about to order company car. Title says it all - only 10% BIK on £33000 car

I know nothing of company car tax etc. but been in one of these and it's simply glorious. Lovely styling, interior etc, maybe not the last thing in handling, and a bit crashy too.

If I didn't think it'd halve in value after a year, however, I'd be tempted as a family car, but then I might just wait a year or 2...

They're a good looking car and a much more distinctive & individual choice than the usual Ford/BMW/Audi/VW etc and I would consider one for my daily driver (admittedly probably not the hybrid), but for the fact that every road test or review I've read about them says that they have a hard ride. Luxury Citröens are meant to have a soft squishy marshmallow ride!

Since it's a company car, go for it . Would be an interesting choice and you don't have to worry about residuals or bits going wrong.

I'd really like this drivetrain in an actual C5 (with the hydro-pneumatic suspension) rather than the C4-based DS5. Still, it's a nice-looking machine and 200 low-tax horsepower is not to be sniffed at!

The BIK is definitely attractive, but £33k for a Citroen? That's the best laugh I've had all day!
