2000 Citroen Saxo VTS review from UK and Ireland
"A bargain if you want a fun car at low cost with great performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Near-side inner wheel arch cover fell off.
General comments?
A great small fun car! Very quick compared to others in its field.
Comfort is lacking and the driver position is a bit strange if you are over 5 feet 9 inches tall.
Great for the city for darting between traffic and good for parking. Not bad boot space also, and have managed to get 4 sets of golf clubs in the back.
Wish I had gone for the air con option.
Interior finish could be more sporty as it looks like a bottom of the range interior and not a sports hatch interior.
Very good at speed and handles really well.
Not that good on petrol if it's been thrashed a bit.
Brakes on my one seem to be a bit dodgy, but they are still stopping me OK!
