1998 Citroen Xsara SX Break review from Sweden
"Stylish high-quality compact with a rare combination of comfort and road-holding for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
A lovely little station wagon with a very comfortable ride, smooth and powerful engine (1.8), low fuel consumption (below 6.0 l/100km on motorways, 100-120 km/h). Comfortable and well built interior. Especially the quality of this vehicle amazes me. Past Citroens could feel a bit tacky, but this one feels strong and solid. Everything works very well indeed. I'm very pleased. They've learned the lessons from the past. In Sweden it comes with a very good warranty.
