Our Cars brief update, Citroen C4 Cactus (month seven), CAR+ October 2015

Published: 16 September 2015 Updated: 16 September 2015

  Month seven with C4 Cactus
  It’s still rather uncomfortable
  Nudging 55mpg average economy

This just in from the missus: Back now. Good thing to have done. My arse hurts from the cactus.

Said freshly texted titbit renders two insightful snippets of information; firstly, the Cactus has now achieved such global renown that it merits its own emoticon and, secondly, it’s still an absurdly uncomfortable conveyance during a journey of any length whatsoever. We’d celebrate average fuel consumption edging 55mpg far more vociferously were but one of those miles to prove even vaguely comfortable.
