Hello from the Netherlands!

Hi,

I recently bought a bright blue 2016 Aygo x-cite and so far it has been great! Great fuel economy, pretty fast compared to my previous car, a Peugeot 307, and more fun to drive. The only things i miss from my old 307 are ACC and the bigger boot. In my family we have a tradition of naming our cars, my little Aygo is called Grote Smurf (Papa Smurf in English), the literal translation is Big Smurf), hence my avatar and username 🙂

I will. Initially I wasn't looking for a Aygo, more like a Renault Twingo, Kia Picanto or Hyundai i10 because of my experience with the gen 1 Aygo, a friend used to own one and you could hear the engine quite clearly in the car. But the new Aygo/C1/108 is a great upgrade over the old ones. When I picked this one up for a test drive i was pleasantly surprised that it is far less noisy inside. So much so that I bought it.

Same here, we had a Peugeot 107 for 13 years now and when few years ago my sister was looking for a new car, impressed by our 107 reliable, cheap to run if a little basic, so when my sister was looking for a new car few years ago, showed her all 3 triplets (Aygo/C1/108) as long as it had Toyota engine, she chose 108 purely on exterior styling cos as we know all the rest basically the same. 

Agree our 108 is a big improvement on our 107, it more sophisticated car, better built and better interior.
