1988 Citroen BX 19 GTI 16v review from Sweden
"One of the funniest cars around and cheap!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust system and the catalyser had some problems, the brakes too but that's easy to fix. The brake lights are weather sensitive too.
General comments?
An awesome car! Cheap, fun, people look at it like it is a Porsche, corners like a Porsche and accelerates like a rocket! But could do with a little more torque, but who cares. A true GTI car that outperforms most new cars!
BUY ONE, YOU WON'T BE SORRY I PROMISE!!!
