1989 Citroen AX Splash review from UK and Ireland
"An economists, and young persons like myself's dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Main oil seal needed replacing and also the rocker box seal.
General comments?
The car is a good handler and faster than my previous car (Fiesta.)
I do however think it would have been an advantage to have a rear-screen wiper.
The glove-box design is very poor though - subsequently I have given it a lower mark than I would have liked on comfort.
