1992 Citroen BX TD review from Netherlands
"A lot of car for a little money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water-pump broke down at 300.000 kilometers.
Front brake disks at 320,000 kilometers.
Front brake pads at 320,000 kilometers.
The hinge on the driver's door needed welding at 380,000 kilometers.
Rear brake pads at 400,000 kilometers.
General comments?
This car is very reliable. It's never failed us.
I used to think that Citroen drivers were exaggerating about the comfort of the hydraulic system. Now I know better, the Citroen really is a smooth drive.
The BX likes long distances.
