1990 Citroen AX GT review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed new distributor, alternator, rear brake drums, various hoses, thermostat, head gasket, rocker cover gasket and timing belt. All despite regular servicing.
General comments?
Great fun to drive, brilliant handling and poor brakes. Very fragile and very expensive when it goes wrong which it did frequently. Alloy wheels with unique 3 stud fittings that corrode very badly. Also odd tyre sizes restricting you to expensive Michelin MXLs.
