New Citroen Grand C4 Picasso – launches January 2014

The New Citroen Grand C4 Picasso (pictured) launches in the UK January 2014 If a Citroen C4 Picasso just isn’t big enough to plant your brood in, Citroen has always had an answer in the shape of the 7-seat Citroen Grand C4 Picasso. And now there’s a new one. Citroen has revealed the new Grand C4 Picasso early, ahead of an on sale date of January 2014 in the UK, which is even more capacious than the old Grand C4 and gets some styling changes to mark it out from its 5-seat sibling.

Scottish Car of the Year 2011: Big night for Jaguar Land Rover

Scottish Car of the Year 2011 Last night saw the awards dinner for the Scottish car of the Year at the Thistle in Glasgow, with Land Rover taking top honours and Jaguar walking away with three gongs (well, two gongs and the motoring equivalent of a ‘Lifetime Achievement’ trophy). The unstoppable Range Rover Evoque took the big prize, being voted the Scottish Car of the Year. Of course, it also won SUV of the year (it would have been a bit odd if it didn’t) and at this rate – and the great feedback from customers and media – Land Rover look like they’ll be mopping up a lot of gongs this next year.
