As promised Citroen went ahead and made a special edition of the C1 city car based on the votes of their Facebook fans. More than 24,000 configurations were submitted through Citroën’s Facebook Page to create the special edition. The name badge that features on the car was also designed by a Citroen Facebook fan. This is the best way to show how important the view of the public is to them. The C1 Connexion is on sale now with 3 or 5 doors, priced at £9,495 and £9,845 respectively. The C1 Connexion is priced at just £500 more than the VTR version on which it is based, but is specified with well over £925 of additional equipment.Fuel and CO2 efficient, the C1 Connexion’s 1.0i 68 petrol engine delivers combined cycle fuel economy of 65.7mpg with CO2 emissions of just 99g/km – making the model VED free and exempt from the London Congestion Charge. Details and Specs: Marc Raven, Citroën’s Communications Director, said; “Citroën UK has a great relationship with its Facebook community – now almost 100,000 strong – and we’re always looking to give something back with exclusive news or competitions. Now Citroën fans can look forward to seeing this special edition C1, which they helped produce, on sale across the UK. I think that’s something they can be very proud of.” Based on the well-specified C1 1.0i 68 manual in VTR trim, the C1 Connexion will also feature 14″alloy wheels, dark tinted rear windows, Caldera Black metallic paint and Scarlet Red exterior and interior detailing.
