2000 Citroen Saxo VTS review from UK and Ireland
"A high performance bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car is fairly new, therefore there is hardly no wear and tear up till now. But many other Saxo owners I lnow from my local area have known to have problems with the gearbox and bottom arms. This is starting to come true with my car.
General comments?
Very fast, apart from Civic's, it is the fastest 1.6 you can have.
Give it a decent exhaust and filter and it will beat the Civic, trust me I know.
Handling is brilliant, but needs a driver to keep it under control, the back end is no stranger to go offline.
In my opinion best car you can buy for £5000.
Simply awsome performance.
