2000 Citroen Xsara VTS review from UK and Ireland
"Very good"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel gauge has an intermittent fault.
Rear torsion bar seized. (freed up eventually)
General comments?
This car is very much a wolf in sheeps clothing, will happily see off most GTi's and so-called "hot hatches".
Handling is superb, inspires confidence.
Interior is very comfortable, well laid-out controls and instruments.
Not much room in back, but then I don't sit in there!! and it is classed as a coupe.
