The Citroen Berlingo was a stalwart of European motoring in the late 90s, but its compact size and lackluster brakes made it feel like a relic from another era. Meanwhile, Ford's C-Max was trying to carve out its own niche as a capable MPV, while Peugeot's Partner shared some of Citroen's DNA.
The Fiesta, with its sprightly handling and stylish design, was always going to be a strong contender in the small car wars, but it couldn't quite match the Berlingo's ruggedness. The Mini, on the other hand, was all about attitude and charm, but its tiny size made it feel like a fragile thing.
The R56 (which saw production from 2002-2011) was an interesting chapter in Peugeot's history, with its unique styling and clever use of space. But even this stalwart of French engineering couldn't hold its own against the likes of Ford's C-Max or Volkswagen's Golf.
