1987 Citroen CX CX25 GTi Turbo 2 review from UK and Ireland
"A high performance luxury classic cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air con losing gas.
Numerous under bonnet electrical connection failures.
Wiper motor.
Hydraulic pipe split.
Boiled over due to fan not operating, caused by you guessed it ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS.
Also rusty electric sunroof a problem and look after the tyres (don't wheel spin them), not cheap at £150 each.
General comments?
Extremely comfortable 140 mph cruiser, a bit expensive to run and electrical problems are a pain in the posterior. Otherwise mechanically excellent, a very cheap high performance cruiser that will see off most new cars and if treated and well looked after, will go on for years.
