1999 Citroen Saxo east coast review from UK and Ireland
"A good looking useless bum"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New exhaust was needed at 21000 miles within two years. Complained to Citroen and was told that although it was not usual it was acceptable for this to occur.
New exhaust again at 44000.
New brake disks and pads are required very frequently. They are always screeching even when lubed and greased by dealership.
Idle regulator replaced at 40241.
General comments?
The interior looks great. Very stylish.
Great to look at as long as you don't expect to drive it.
Very comfortable.
Taking service and MOT out of the equation over £2000 of repairs.
Green Flag have been excellent on all five occasions they have been called out.
