1993 Citroen Xantia LX review from UK and Ireland
"A good excuse to go for a spin"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major so far, the lever which adjusts the seat height recently broke, and the seats and steering wheel are showing signs of wear. The stereo was not working when I acquired the car.
General comments?
Fantastic drive, really smooth gear changes and the driving position is very comfortable. Big boot space and a flap in the back seats for putting long items in without going through the process of putting the seats down.
Despite the excess mileage the engine is showing no signs of wear, no black smoke out of the exhaust or excess fuel consumption.
The low parking suspension is also useful for loading the roof rack!
