1988 Citroen AX GT review from UK and Ireland
"A pure moth of a car!!!!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Both track control arms, central locking, dash light bulbs, waterpump, hand brake cables, brake shoes and pads, CV boots and various other bushes, new gearbox and clutch (2nd gear wouldn't engage), rear wheels sit at a funny angle but this may be normal for the mark 1's. Lock on driver's door became loose!
General comments?
Apart from the great big list these are great cars to drive and are nippy up to 100mph. Burned ofd many cars inc Saxo VTS, Golf GTi and many XR2's but the list could go on! Car now sorted and would recommend it to anyone! Superb and economical for the performance that can be gained. With a few mods like a K&N and a straight through exhaust you'll be smiling guaranteed when you walk out of the car, everytime.
