1993 Citroen AX Jive review from UK and Ireland
"Good reliable car cheap to run"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New clutch 88,000 miles
camshaft seal leaking, needs fixing.
General comments?
Excellent first car, good on fuel handbook says 79.9mpg. I usually get about 400miles plus on £25. Comfortable seats and drives well fairly nippy car for a diesel and is in perfect condition with no rust, not bad for 12years. handles well on corners, but don't push cause it will do three wheels,
as I found one day on a sharp junction.
Keeps up with cars on motorway and OK on overtaking (don't try steep hills) on a straight it will do 50 to 80 in a few seconds in 5th gear, but don't expect to be pushed back in your seat, so really it's a all-round good car cheap to insure group 2 and low maintenace, you can pick one up for just £500.
