Stylish, good to drive and surprisingly practical, the DS3 Cabrio has what it takes to beat the Fiat 500C.

Her style of review has changed for the better. Much more relaxed
The weather has finally warmed up. 25 degrees C and clear, blue skies!
When I was a kid , my father had Citoen Diane . I had soft roling roof , which when roled you just clamp above rear hatch (it was normal hatchback). For better roof support , it had between B pilars thick bar , on whick I can hold while standing on back seats. I was not fast, but it had good ground clearance , great for picnics and it was super comftable. If only Yugoslavia was not at sanctions at that time and we could buy engine oil and petrol with less than 50% wather, I would still drive it.
Now I'm going to re-watch all the CB videos again to find that lovely pink thermos mug.
Really informative, Thank you
Hey! we are talking about a DS3 here! Very good driving experience!
Gallons are used for liquids while as in the case of grams per kilometer , thats used when measuring output of CO2 , Grams used for gasses and dry volumes. Basically the same reason you have Gallons for fuel ( 2.31 cubic inches ) and Dry Gallons ( roughly 2.69 cubic inches ) for dry commodities like grain in the states although I am not sure if you still use Dry Gallons.
The boot reminds me of the original Mini!
Good question. Britain converted to the metric system for weights and measures in the early 70's. However, it was always a slow and gradual process rather than an overnight change. For a reason that no one seems to know the answer to, fuel measures were converted to litres but miles per gallon persist. Maybe it was the cost of changing millions of road signs to kmh. We still have lots of examples of imperial and metric measures running in parallel.
Officially, the UK is metric. Metric is usually used formally, while imperial is used colloquially.
Good review
Glovebox is tiny because the British have the steering at the right side and the fuses are still on the left. This is why only the right hand drive DS3 has this tiny glovebox. Wating for my DS3 hatchback and perhaps there are some small updates after French holiday at Citröen.
II like this car, and review.
okay, now do the DS3 WRC, because I like one of those very much :)
a smart brabus and merc cla review would be perfect
Her eyes are amazing
how can you see back if the roof is down ?
As a BMW enthusiast kudos to Citroen, event though it would take too much to lure one away !
Review the Fiat 500C Abarth please?
Don't forget the British gallon is different from the gallon used in the US. Just to make things easy.
good to see you healthy again, Rebecca :)
Oh look the Pluriel is back in new clothing.
surprising nice inside :D
on gas station. are prices per gallon or per liter?
This car is the best joke in its class and I want one!
How do you get it into sunshine mode? Been trying to research but found no answers :(

Graham better never go to the beach as he just might totally flip out in anger.
DS was line of extra super innowative new cars but this is just normaln citroen that end an mechanic faster than light
My favorite bomber girl!!!
Convertible? It's a sun roof.
If not for rebecca I'd never finish watching this review.
if i had to choose between DS3 cabrio or 500c, id take the 500c but Abarth version only
Did anyone heard that rattle at 2:29?
Looks like the boot lid can easily chop a few fingers off as it shuts.
well i wasnt wondering why you didnt open the roof..apparently it was raining..
We also buy our fuel in litres instead of gallons :)
I wandered how can u be dutiful like that
We use grams per kilometre as we are part of Europe and thus the European union so we have to use their measurements however I believe that some parts of Europe use MPG. There you go the worlds most long winded answer ;-)
shiny surfaces for the interior is a bad idea. it's not a problem in the UK, but in sunny Greece, trust me, you'll regret it... :-)
Few years later you will find yourself holding an umbrella while driving lol
yeh point well made!!
same thing here in the philippines. people here never stick to one system. >.
Honest question: Why do your Brits use Miles per Gallon but then use grams per kilometer? Why not stick with one system or the other?
I want to know what she drives...
Doe it ever get warm in that place. May and still using sweaters? Gee.
I'm sorry but this is not a cabrio!!! Citroen, you have ideas (C3 pluriel ) but you need to work on engineering and implementing them to customers' service not to show them as ideas only! Rebecca you made some very convincing points, once again!!!
Oh my. Was there a car being reviewed here? All I could see was a mighty fine lady. :-)
Excellent, no cupholders, that's what I want to hear. I've never understood this fascination that some reviewers have with cup holders..., total lack of imaginations. I mean, how many people do you know that get together with their friends for coffee .. in a car ?

The individual themselves or your front seat passenger might have/want a hot drink if on their travels. Really not hard to understand the purpose and usage of cupholders.

@@thesilentgametestr I well understand the purpose and use of cupholders. The point I'm making is that so many reviews put overmuch emphasis on the presence of, or number, or position of cup holders rather than the overall abilities of the car.

Since when is 47.9 MPG impressive?
They should've called it Pluriel.
where is my 208 gti test?
@2.05 roof open @2.10 roof closed
The boot can fit a small luggage and plenty of bananas.
That isnt a cabriolet thats a car with a giant sunroof
I'd like to go away for a week... but I can't!
The freckle on her chin makes up for it though. ;)
"what the use to having this ass if you aint even gonna throw it. I say throw that ass! throw that ASS!" = great review!
of course she is British!)) but not any Brit accent sounds like her ;)
700th Like! :)
They should of made the boot so tailgate folds down
Atleast it isn't as bad as the Evoque Cabriolet :S Or even the Murano :L
Why do Americans use miles per gallon but then use liters to measure engine displacement
really now? a joke? the racing version has 210HP and an amazing design, better than any hatcbacks out there
it's better using grams per kilometer than using tons per kilometer as the American do
Is it me or does she say "And comes in three Gizes" (1:14)
Very nice sweet girl! I like her British accent
I have to say, Rebecca Jackson is so damn beautiful :)
What the hell, it's not a cabriolet, it's just a glorified sunroof.
grams per km is a european measurement
Seems to be Citroens' forté
They may call that panoramic sunroof, but it definetely isn't convertible.
banana test LOL
because they cant make up their mind on which system to choose.
presenter is beautiful
a nice girlie's car
They stole all those tricks from the FIAT 500c.
Sorry, was not meant for you. I meant more generally.
Again the glove box issue. Sorry but I can easily fit in my glove box, the manual, my papers, hammer, ice scratcher and my cd's. The audio system got completely forgotten which is a shame since it is pretty useful (aux,usb,bluethoot...) and good with the sub. I have to agree on the cup holders thing and the door storage compartments, that is pretty bad but even so the room in the back is also not that bad. I'm 6.2 and have been sitting in the back with a same size person in front and it was fine. I have to say that this review channel is pretty biased. Always saying that a mini is better and thus renders this car worthless... I say unsubscribe.
fact. citroen is way more reliable than mini. especially diesel engines, unbreakable.
No banana test :(
Both are wrong. Use the metric system, or use the imperial system. You can not use both or a mixture. Vive le système métrique!!
She is cute
Beautiful lady sorry my English is verry bad!
Shes gorgeous (The girl that is)
Why do you always pronounce cabriolet incorrectly? Lol! It's cab-RIO-lay, not cab-ril-ay Love your reviews so much though... I've just watched 20 in a row #SatNightIn

Who's going to buy this car? A single professional young woman that only goes away for weekends? Rebecca, would you buy this type of car? You are the target market!!
That Boot is pathetic
UK accent is so sexy
big banana test
No space for bananas?! OMG! :(
Since when did cars with overgrown sunroofs become convertibles ? This car's a joke. Nice, optimistic review though.
sir alex ferfuson retired!!!
3:18 Love handles
Well it's a Citroen, i wouldn't expect much. Besides being a complete Mini rip off...
well , she is british ...
guise google it
it's just a big sunroof...that's no real convertible.
