1999 Citroen Saxo VTR review from UK and Ireland
"High performance, low cost"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to have the gearbox rebuilt after 15,000 miles (warranty covered).
Airbag light keeps coming on.
General comments?
New front end looks the business.
Quick with superb handling for the low insurance.
Becoming a bit more common on the older shapes.
Superb economy for the engine size.
Interior could be better as it is a bit plastic and bland.
A bit tailend happy when pushed to the limit on corners.
