1996 Citroen Xantia dimension review from UK and Ireland
"There are some genuine bargains out there cheap parts from non main dealers"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major only front and resr spheres due do age.
General comments?
Bought off ebay for £60 with light front n\s damage req wing bonnet headlight bumper all got locally from breakers yard in same colour for £100 all in. car only 70k on clock with full dealer history in generally vgc pre accident. drives like new comfy quiet far superior to my old bx td. have found it quite juicy in town, but 40mpg on motorway. all in all a very underrated car tho beware of failing electrics. my sunroof won't work and never has. mechanically sound ones should see 150k or more miles with no major worries.
