1993 Citroen ZX Furio review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
OK til about 70k, then a broken con-rod smashed the engine to bits. Expensive.
The car had been regularly serviced.
General comments?
Excellent handling, rear wheel steer really works, not as fast as it looks though.
Very poor visibility in wet and/or dark, poor headlights for a car of this performance, single windscreen wiper is just a joke, grannies in Maestros overtake me in the wet on twisty roads!
Seats designed to look good (a la Recaro) but give no support. Steering wheel is annoyingly offset to the left of the centre of one's body.
Nice stereo.
