2003 Citroen Xsara SX review from Australia and New Zealand
"Reliable and cheap to run"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing as yet, but new discs and pads will be required at the next service.
General comments?
Good performance and economy from the diesel engine. We are averaging 52-55mpg in mixed motoring.
Superb ride, and the handling is good, though it rolls more than our previous model.
Paint seemed a little soft, as we have picked quite a few stone chips.
Rear visibility is not the best either, and general build quality is only average.
Overall an excellent family car with excellent reliability.
