1989 Citroen AX TRE review from UK and Ireland
"Biggest pile of unwashed pants"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator, alternator, alternator and the alternator. Wheel balance permanently out.
General comments?
Not strictly mine - it's my friends but I drive it from time to time. I have to say this is the biggest bag of spanners to come from France! Performance is poor at the best of times - 0-60 in about 14 secs - I drive a 205 diesel and average it in 11 secs!
