2000 Citroen Saxo VTR review from UK and Ireland
"Pocket rocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No real faults apart from a strange creaking from the nearside which is the front inner splash guard missing a fastner - due to going through puddles at speed during the recent floods!
General comments?
Has now been tuned by LAD in Morecambe and is quicker than a VTS.
Better torque and really comes on song after 4000 rpm (85 mph).
Unseen mods - still Group 7 insurance!
Do it!
