1999 Citroen Saxo Spree review from UK and Ireland
"A very good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Insulator pipe cracked after 55,000 miles.
Spark in engine not working properly.
Trouble starting.
General comments?
A very good reliable car up until the last few months of ownership. Could regularly reach 90mph easily and handled well in corners.
Unfortunately I'll remember the car for the bad things towards the end, but it was an excellent car for 5 years, doing many long Saturday journeys to football matches and never let me down.
The controls are all really simple to use, it comes with a decent sound system and the speakers are of good quality.
The look of the car was very good too, it had a stylish shape and was protected by many safety features.
