1986 Citroen BX 17RD review from UK and Ireland
"Check out that speedo!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Suspension started creaking when rising.
General comments?
CThis was my second car, and felt like a
Ferrari after owning a Yugo!
Like riding on a magic carpet-but with
immense body roll-this old smoker was
very comfortable and reliable transport.
Bearing in mind how much it used to get
floored everywhere the mpg was really
good and compared to all my mates
1.0 litre Fiestas and Metros of the time it was half cool with Central Locking and Electric windows!!
Got rid of it when I annihalated an Escort with in a front end smash-the BX
just came out of it with a dented front wing!
