1994 Citroen Xantia LX review from UK and Ireland
"A good bargain, reliable and overall a good runner"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front wheel bearings wore out very quickly.
Tracking was slightly out of alignment.
Front tires wore faster than expected.
Hydraulic pump failed while traveling at 40mph and turning on a roundabout.
General comments?
The car is wonderful to drive, comfortable, but a little noisy on some road surfaces.
I find the drive position a little low, despite being 6 foot tall and my wife can barely see over the steering wheel.
The front pillars seriously obstruct your view at junctions and the rear view mirror makes half the windscreen disappear from view.
