Estimates for a new purchase at list price; retail basis, trade-in ≈ 12% under retail.
Citroen's design flagship of the early 2010s, sold here in tiny numbers with the 1.6 THP engine. Its aircraft-inspired cabin drew attention, but a firm ride and high price kept sales minimal. Expect deep depreciation and scarce parts expertise.
