1987 Citroen CX 25 GTi review from Finland
"Big, comfortable and fast car for a young man"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear suspension unit leak.
Alternator seized without warning.
New battery was bought to make the electric system work perfectly.
Oil pressure sensor failed.
General comments?
You don't see one of these very often in Finland and I get much admiration from fellow motorists.
Rather expensive to maintain and has rust in the door bottoms and around the sunroof.
Manual gearbox is awkward and I'm considering to install air conditioning.
