1997 Citroen Saxo SX review from UK and Ireland
"Very nippy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car failed to start one morning. The reason is still unknown.
Recently the car has developed a problem where in second gear the car seems sluggish upto 3000 revs. Then the revs begin to rise quickly. This will be investigated at the next service which is now due.
General comments?
Very nice as this is my first car. It seems very quick for a 1.1. Has some lovely touches and in my opinion looks a lot better than a low spec model 106.
Would have liked to have seem some other standard features added though. It has electric windows, but no power steering.
