1990 Citroen AX GT review from UK and Ireland
"Don't even go there!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Every thing you can think of.
Gearbox fell out.
Electrical problems that lead to only starting when it felt like it (had to be bump started most of the time)
Back Suspension (this made the archers rub so nobody could sit in the back)
Oil leaked.
Radiator leaked.
Head gasket.
Seats broke.
Fuel gauge stopped working.
Side indicator stopped working.
Over heated all the time.
Exhorted fell off (when trying to sell the thing)
And the water washer had been replaced with a hot water bottle (as every AX GT now comes with)
General comments?
Never ever buy one of these, if you do you will notice a hot water bottle where the washer is meant to be, as nearly every AX GT has one because the washer has fallen off. If you have an original washer then you better invest in a hot water bottle because you will need one.
