1994 Citroen AX from Portugal - Comments

"A very fragile car, but a low price and great performance!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Brakes (all) and engine thermostat.

General comments?

It is a very cheap car with a very, very nice performing engine! Bur, it has a lousy handling. If you are expecting to "drive safe" in this car, just forget it. This is a fragile car.

I disagree. This car has excellent handling properties, at least if you know how to drive a front-wheel drive car, and if of course all components are in good condition.

It handles like a kart, both on wet and dry roads.

Unfortunately I must say that I agree with this 'bad handling' subject. Compared with other similar cars, the Citroen AX is by far the worst!

The AX is a fragile car! You'll find this 'caps lock' written sentence in the named "Echo" review 2 pages back: "DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU THAT YOUR CAR HANDLES WELL!" something like this. The AX has lousy handling that's for sure.

I also agree, the handling is diabolical. I have driven £50 Minis which handle better. Traction is bad also.

I think that the AX is very poor, but the AX GTi is simply the best of the smaller cars, it has nothing to do with the other AX`s. It brakes well, and accelerate even greater, it turns fast and it is beautiful. THANKS.

Well... The AX rides OK, however don't abuse of it, except the GT, GTI.

If something goes wrong... the paramedic will find you somewhere in the middle of the dash and the gear box.
