1992 Citroen BX Progress review from Netherlands
"A lot of car for the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Once it didn't elevate, this minor problem was caused by a little air bubble in the hydro pneumatic system.
Apart from that, nothing yet.
General comments?
This is my second BX, the previous one being a normal 14 which had about 150000 km's in it's life. Apart from a bad gearbox (2nd was a problem, but it didn't get worse in the 3 years I owned this car), no problems.
The Progress is more luxurious and has a more powerful engine. Beautiful car, very very comfortable, and so far very cheap in service costs. Or am I just lucky? Time will tell.
