Citroen Holidays

The Citroën Holidays wraps the brand's cheerful French charm into a holiday-ready package, with cosy, flexible interiors and styling that makes every errand feel like the start of a mini break. It won't thrill the petrolhead, but as a clever, easygoing companion for family getaways and weekend escapes it delivers exactly what most buyers want: comfort, personality and a mischievous sense of fun.

Mazda MX-5 Roadster

The Mazda MX-5 is a featherweight, open-top sports car that turns ordinary roads into a grin-inducing playground thanks to razor-sharp steering and an engaging, tactile gearbox. It won’t swallow the weekly shopping or ski bags, but for anyone after pure driving fun and sun-on-your-face weekends, few cars match its sheer charm and value.
