1992 Citroen BX 16 TGI Top review from Germany
"Nothing special, but a good friend for every day and an always underestimated car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Refering to the low distance travelled with this car, only the four suspension spheres had to be renewed.
General comments?
These cars have lots of advantages, but the owner has to live with some "extraordinaries". This one is my second BX and my fourth Citroen overall. It has clearly the best quality of the four cars, it's not really fast, but is always quick enough.
However, it's a very comfortble car and, because of the special model "Top" (in other countries: "Millésime"), it's very well equipped. I've just been in Spain for a holiday with the BX Top, which means 1.500 km in one day... no problem.
When this car will be worn out in a few years, I guess it won't be possible to find another one again. Up to now, I have no idea what to buy then in exchange for the BX.
