1982 Citroen CX 2000 GT review from Switzerland
"Certainly the most advanced car of its time"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator failed - now replaced.
General comments?
This car is very pleasant to drive on long travels, except that it should always come with air condition - the windscreen is very large.
Its suspension and steering are beyond description - like driving on an air cushion and on rails simultaneously.
The interior is very spacious, but the boot is rather small and poorly accessible. Shame on Citroën for making it a hatchback!
If maintained properly, the car can actually be reliable - except the electrical system which is prone too bad surprises.
