2001 Citroen C5 SX review from UK and Ireland
"Fantastic long distance cruiser!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front left hand light bulb blew within a week of purchase.
Read offside passenger door-lock has to be unlocked from the inside by pulling the handle as it refuses to open when the central locking is unlocked, this problem also occurred within a week of purchase.
General comments?
Very spacious; particularly when sitting at the front of the car.
Smooth turbo diesel engine with no turbo lag, as apposed to my old 405.
Relatively solid chassis with Citroen's trade-mark suspension system (hydraulic)
Simply a car designed for long distance journeys, overtaking slower moving traffic is effortless; its more than easy to reach 90mph with out even noticing as the 110bhp diesel engine just doesn't seem to want to stop pulling!
