Compare Citroen C4 Grand Picasso mobile tyre fitting quotes from specialist garages

Over the years, Citroen has come up with more than a few quirky ideas. The second car it produced, the 1922 Type C 5HP, became known as the ‘petit citron' (little lemon) because of its small size and the yellow paint colour you could order it in. Since then, there has been the Citroen Picasso, taking inspiration from Pablo Picasso's use of shape. The Citroen DS 19 was the vehicle of choice for the French President Charles de Gaulle, who survived an assassination attempt in 1962 thanks to the car's superior suspension system, allowing his chauffeur to drive away after two of the tyres were shot.

The C4 Grand Picasso is a versatile MPV with style to boot, redefining what a large family vehicle can do and be. At the 2018 Auto Express Used Car awards, it was named 'Best Used MPV', and two years later, it was voted 'Best MPV up to £10,000' at the WhatCar? Used Car Awards. The C4 Grand Picasso is a class leader that holds its value and boasts an excellent track record for reliability. As with most Citroens, electrical issues are common, though usually minor and easy to fix, and a few drivers have reported suspension problems.

Mobile tyre fitting is identical to regular car tyre fitting, except the mechanic comes to you. This service can take place almost anywhere - by the roadside, at home or at work - as long as it's safe. Many mobile tyre fitters offer 24-hour tyre fitting, which is convenient if you have broken down and need to continue your journey.

When you book a car tyre change with a mobile mechanic, make sure you tell them the make and model of your car so they know what type of tyre it needs. If you want to find out this information yourself, look at the markings on the sidewall of your current tyres. Our ultimate car tyres guide discusses how to understand these markings and choose the right tyres. We also have a tyre brand review series.

There are many advantages to using a mobile mechanic. For example, booking a mobile flat tyre repair is sometimes cheaper because mobile fitters often work independently; this means they don't have the same overheads as a regular garage and can pass those savings on to you.
