1990 Citroen AX GT review from Norway
"One of a kind. Recommended"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The bulb for the heater-control panel went, and one of the mounts for the drivers-seat is loose. Some rust here and there..
Not had it for so long though..
General comments?
I love this car; there is something distinctive about it. Like the red dash board light, the red stripes around the dash and especially the red stripes in the carpet. I also bought it a CD player with a red display.
I had also never thought a 1.4 could be so quick, though it is perhaps not so quick compared to Japanese cars/rice boilers..? Easy to tune though. Whatever, it's quick enough.
Feels sturdy, but that's perhaps the only positive thing to say about that.. Lies good on the road with 165 65 14 tires.
Love this car. It's like a boring, soul-less Opel/Toyota whatever driving machine, just not boring and silly - it's a Citroen. I love this car.
