1989 Citroen AX GT review from UK and Ireland
"A technological masterpiece!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My alternator went.
Radiator been replaced.
C-V Boot worn, causing knocking noise round corners.
Brake Shoes.
Drums.
Brake disks and pads (been replaced with G-Spot Grooved Disks and Red Dot pads)
General comments?
An absolutely brilliant ride.
A car you fall in love with.
My aim is to get mine in Max Power and other car magazies.
Got twin webber 40s, skimmed head, high performance clutch plate, and Kent fast road cam.
Front bumper modified with mesh inserts, Clio spot lights, and m3 front splitter smoothed onto bumper.
Bad Boy bonnet with GTi R bonnet scoop, musketeer rear bumper with exhaust in middle, flushed boot, 15" alloy wheels.
Lowered 110mm rear 75mm front, with adjustable shocks.
Loads more mods are on their way!!
I've had loads of cars and this is definitely the best!! No doubt about it. It is undoubtedly one of the finest hot hatches ever made!
Extremely good car.
Surprising how many other high performance cars you can beat!!!
