The Citroën Xsara Picasso became an outright success number for the French car brand, even surpassing the success of the actual Citroën Xsara. The large version of the Xsara was clearly in demand, even in the Netherlands. Do you own one of these models and need a windscreen replacement? Then you have come to the right place. We are the largest provider of replacement windscreens in the Netherlands and with us you will find cheap automotive glass without compromising on quality.
Of course, we will first take a look at this model from France together, after which we will surprise you with the price of our new Citroën Xsara Picasso windscreens.
The Citroën Xsara entered the market in 1997, but the French decided early on to make the range of models wide in order to claim a bigger market share. It took less than two years before the hatchback version of the Xsara would get its own line as a genuine MPV and the name Citroën Xsara Picasso. At the time of introduction, there were two trims, an LX and an SX, but more trim levels would be added later. In all versions, the rear of the front seats had a folding table and the rear seats could be completely removed to allow for a very large boot.
The 2004 facelift for the Citroën Xsara Picasso is roughly equivalent to the facelift the Xsara received. The front end, bumpers and engines were tweaked, but hugely significant changes were not forthcoming. Citroën also had no reason to make a bigger intervention, as the Citroën Xsara Picasso was popular and sold well from the moment it was introduced.
If you look for the production period of this model, you will come across a variety of answers. This is due to a striking fact about this model. The Xsara Picasso was in fact made in four countries, with the production years not corresponding. In Spain, for example, production ran from 1999 to 2010, where French factories were allowed to jump in from 2007 to 2009. In Brazil, however, models rolled out of the factories between 2001 and 2012, where 2001-2009 was the production period in China.
When we look at popularity, the Citroën Xsara Picasso comfortably wins over the Citroën C4 Picasso and the Citroën Xsara. Indeed, when we look at sales figures, the Xsara Picasso is even more impressive, shooting over 1,700,000 in Europe alone.
With Citroën, the addition ‘Picasso’ really means nothing more than that it is an MPV version of an existing model. But ‘Picasso’ really does make many people think of someone before car models come up. Citroën has managed to capitalise on this in a funny way with the advert below, which aired in the UK.
Windscreen damage is annoying, but in which cases should the windscreen actually be replaced? The rules are the same for all cars on Dutch roads. When windscreen damage is in the driver's field of vision and this is a branched crack or a chip with a diameter of at least 20 millimetres, the windscreen has to be replaced. Your car will not pass the MOT with this window damage, as the risk of accidents (due to distraction or glare from light reflection) is simply too high.
If the windscreen damage is not in the direct field of vision or is limited in size, you may continue to drive with the damaged window and the car will (in normal circumstances) not be rejected for the windscreen damage at the MOT.
Have you determined that the windscreen of your Citroën Xsara Picasso needs replacing and now you want to know what a new windscreen costs? With us, you can find a replacement windscreen for your Xsara Picasso for as little as €399. Indeed, that is considerably cheaper than what your Citroën dealer told you. The quality of our automotive glass is identical to that of the original windscreens, but our windscreens do not have a brand logo that ensures an exclusive character and therefore a higher price. So we can always offer you cheap windscreens without compromising on quality.
Would you like to save on costs by replacing the windscreen yourself? Then we strongly advise against it when it comes to replacing the Xsara Picasso windscreen. Windscreen replacement is a precise and extensive job, especially for an MPV with large, heavy windows that can easily cause damage to the car or yourself.

As long as you make sure our partners can get to your car, they will make sure you can be back on the road with an intact, new and clean windscreen in no time.
