1999 Citroen Saxo West Coast review from UK and Ireland
"As good as the VTR and cheaper than the VTS"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing as of 18 months.
General comments?
Excellent value for young drivers, the look of the VTR/VTS but with low insurance group and free insurance for 1-2 years.
Performance is spot on, but really needs a 6th gear, 70mph in 5th runs at 3000rpm, so a little vocal on the motorway.
Fuel economy is outstanding, 40-50mpg average, at constant 60mph motorway, possible 60-70MPG!!
Thoroughly recommended.
