I've decided to sell my Rapid and downsize to the Citigo

I've just ordered the Monte Carlo version

The dealer think 6-12 weeks until it arrives.

Will be browsing through the Citigo threads section from now

I don't think you'll be disappointed with the Citigo

Nice, what colour did you go for?! Lots of people seem to really like the silver!

I love my Citigo Sport and I'm sure the Monte will be just as good! For some reason I would love the flat bottom wheel the monte has lol :-)

I was torn between the Red and White but went for the White in the end

Looking forward to seeing the white Monte and how the new decals look compared to the Sport versions' stripes.

 

Bet you're pretty chuffed to be getting it.

Hoping to order a silver Monte next year.

Does it get an engine worthy of the words "Monte Carlo" or is it just an image/stickers effect?

Really wish they would put a decent engine in, not anything like boss mans project but say a 1.4 with some umph

What's wrong with the 1.0 3 cyl now?

Has plenty of go if driven correctly.

But a 1.2tsi would be nice

I find it hard for anyone to not know what the Monte Carlo trim level represents, if they've been on Briskoda long enough to get over 500 posts.

 

By the way, the engine in the Citigo is "decent". I got rid of Mk2 Fabia vRS for the Citigo - swapping from a 1.4 180ps to the 1.0 and enjoying driving more.

I did look around a Fabia Monte Carlo, before I bought my Octavia.

Was hoping if they have done a Monte Carlo version of the Citigo (swmbo has 60bhp SE), that it might get a bigger engine or a few more bhp than the 2 engine variants currently available.

TBH I do not genuinely know what "Monte Carlo" trim level means on any of the Skoda models, thought it was an improved performance/suspension with some black bits?

lol - just the black bits I'm afraid. Even the "lowered" suspension on the Citigo Monte is a bit marketing hype, as it is the same as the greentech suspension.

Does anybody know what group insurance it is? I think the Citigo is a group 1 but not sure if monte carlo will be slightly higher? I presume the sport would be the same?

The Citigo models are groups 2 and 3 IIRC ?

As you suspect, 60ps models are quoted as group 1 but the higher price may push it into group 2?

My Rapid has gone back to the dealer today so just got to wait now for the Monte Carlo to arrive! It's going to be a long wait I feel...

White MC looks great. I love my red sport and initially wanted the white however didn't like the red stickers. White MC with black stickers sounds sweet.

Yeah looks good in the pics! Can't wait to see it in the flesh

I love this in Silver

I wasn't so sure about the silver to be honest.

Just had a call off the dealer saying it's arrived!! That was a quick 6-12 weeks! Here in less than 3!

Great news. Look forward to seeing this

I have to be honest I wasnt sure about the silver M/C but in that pic it looks nice. I still think in red or white though it misses the sports stripes.

I'm very tempted to get a Silver one. It's a great colour combination or the new Citigo Black edition?

I might have to see what sort of a deal i can get around Xmas, once in 18months into the PCP..........

 

Mind, if VW launch the up GT im having one of those!
