1986 Citroen Visa GTi review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap and good performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator fan switch connector corroded.
Petrol filler cap leaked when going around corners.
Exhaust pipe rotted - difficult to find a replacement.
Side Indicator connectors corroded - soldered the wires to the bulbs eventually.
General comments?
Probably the best I ever owned for blasting country lanes.
Very flimsy construction and the front windows used to pull away from the car at about 70mph - very noisy.
Pretty poor fuel economy which wasn't helped by a leaking fuel filler.
Very small inside and the boot was lost to the spare wheel.
