Citroen Ami

The Citroën Ami is a cheeky, ultra-compact city runabout that turns parking into a non-event and makes traffic feel almost friendly. It won't thrill you with speed or luxury, but as an economical, fuss-free way to nip around town and save on congestion, it's a clever little solution for urban life—with personality to spare.

The machine's power is breathtaking.

Peugeot 208

The Peugeot 208 feels like a city-savvy fox: compact, stylish and surprisingly grown-up, with a cabin that punches above its weight and enough personality to make daily commutes a little less boring. It’s a smart pick for buyers who want chic practicality without the showroom bluster — easy to park, thrifty to run and oddly fun when the road tightens up.
