The Citroen C4 Cactus I'm running at the moment certainly attracts attention. It is stared at more than any other car I've driven, with the exception of a Maserati GranTurismo.

On social media it generates, and splits, opinion. Here's a taste of some of the responses to my tweets.

@speedmonkeycouk I'm very intrigued by this car. 1) why all the press fell over themselves when announced 2) will it do well (I hope so)

@speedmonkeycouk @CitroenUK saw it in the flesh & really liked it inside & out. May be uninspiring technically but aesthetically interesting
