1994 Citroen AX review from UK and Ireland
"A good budget car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Warped discs at 25,000 - replaced with pattern parts which are still OK. Friends AX had same problem with disc warping at similar mileage.
Leaks on all side windows - dealer tried to cure by bending door window frames!!
Leaking hose pipe to radiator - cured by throwing away useless standard clips and replacing with proper jubille clips!
General comments?
A good car for town use - but I regularly use mine for 800 mile round trips to Europe!
Not much leg room for long folk!
Can go quite quickly if the gearbox is used sensibly.
Excellent mpg - 55mpg at a constant 65mph on European roads (with four people in car & luggage).
