1992 Citroen ZX Volcane review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator hose chafed on PAS pump body,losing coolant.
Sticking electric sunroof.
New front discs at 66k
General comments?
Great ZX handling, 2.0 engine pulls like a train, easy to drive fast. Corners hard, cruises well, good driving position, accurate power steering, nice gearbox and pedal setup. Comfy supportive seats, innovative rear seat slides forward to extend bootspace (or folds).
A little noisy but worth it. Faster and cheaper than the 306 XSi it has commonality with, and I have been plesantly surprised by Citroen dealers, the menu priced servicing is reasonable if you want to keep the car on a full Citroen dealer history.
