1996 Citroen ZX Memphis review from UK and Ireland
"If you enjoy your driving find one before they have all bitten the dust"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New radiator required under warranty.
New sunroof mechanism £500 ouch!
General comments?
This car is an unbelievable blend of mid range performance and handling. Performance with so much torque in a body this light is hard to match in the mid-range, a GTi would need to be pushed to its rev limit to make the same progress. Performance is weaker over 100mph but hey what's the speed limit? On sweeping A roads you can make fast progress in this car. Cheaper and mechanically identical to the sort after 306 D turbo. Niggles worth it.
Brakes are not good enough for a car this quick - get them uprated.
These engines if well serviced go on forever.
