FactEvery front seat in the Xsara Picasso hides a fold-down table, built into a body designed to swallow van-sized cargo.
The Citroën Xsara Picasso is a five-seater, five-door compact MPV produced by Citroën from 1999 to 2012, based on the Xsara hatchback platform. At its release in December 1999 (June 2000 in the UK) two trim levels were available, LX and SX, with later designations including Desire, VTX and the range-topping Exclusive, some with an electric glass sunroof. On all models the front seat backs have fold-down tables, and the rear seats can be removed to create extensive internal space for bulky items, similar to a small van. The model received a facelift in early 2004 with updated bumpers and engines, and body-coloured bumpers were made standard on all trim levels. It was available with 1.6, 1.8 and 2.0 litre (automatic only) petrol engines, or a choice of 1.6 and 2.0-litre diesels, the 2.0 replaced by the 1.6-litre from 2004 onwards, all shared with the smaller Xsara apart from the 1.6 diesel. From 1999 to 2010 it was assembled at the PSA plant in Vigo, Spain, and since 2001 in Porto Real, Brazil, for Latin America, where it was the top-selling vehicle in its class for a while. In March 2007 Auto Trader called it the most popular MPV in the United Kingdom.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

This Presage minivan shares its underlying platform with the Teana sedan and the North American Murano crossover — one architecture doing three very different jobs.
Subaru's family-hauling Exiga got an unlikely STi treatment in 2009 — front spoiler, sport muffler, tighter suspension and a leather Momo wheel — but only 300 were ever built.
YRV stands for Young Recreational Vehicle, a mini MPV built to out-handle its own segment rivals.
The Terraza was Buick's first-ever minivan for the North American market - a badge-engineered cousin of the Chevrolet Uplander, Pontiac Montana SV6, and Saturn Relay.
The restyled 1994 Lumina Minivan quietly made American automotive history: it was the first minivan sold in the US with a power sliding door you could open by remote.
The first-generation Lumina APV minivan was nicknamed the "Dustbuster" by the press for its sharply sloped windshield, which pushed the dashboard far forward of the driver.
Its steeply sloped windshield gave the Lumina APV one of the deepest dashboards ever fitted to a mass-produced car.
The first Presage wasn't really its own car underneath — most of its parts came straight from the Nissan R'nessa, with more shared with its platform twin, the Bassara.
