The first production car in the UK to be specified by viewers via a Facebook App, the Citroën C1 Connexion, is on sale now with the three-door model priced at £9,495 and the five-door version at £9,845.
Citroën wants to make the crowdsourced C1 Connexion sound more special than it really is, as the differences over the C1 VTR are limited to the choice of colors and some additional equipment features.
The French carmaker says that 24,000 configurations were submitted through its Facebook Page with the final design created from the most popular configuration. According to the company, a Citroën Facebook fan designed the name badge that features on the car.
The Connexion is based on the 65.7mpg (UK) C1 1.0i 68 manual in VTR trim adding 14-inch alloy wheels, dark tinted rear windows, a Caldera Black metallic paint and Scarlet Red exterior and interior detailing.
Citroën says that the C1 Connexion is priced at £500 more than the VTR version on which it is based, but is specified with “well over £925 of additional equipment”.
