Vision seems to be pretty good, although the C-pillar is a bit thick, meaning there’s a chunky blindspot. Thankfully, the split rear windscreen isn’t as much hassle as the design suggests.
However, £7000-£10,000 seems like the starting point for a Grand C4 Picasso with under 100,000 miles, getting you a good, clean car with an average mileage, bought from a trade seller.
