1996 Citroen Xantia TD review from UK and Ireland
"Overall a crap car with great engine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes are hideous, none of the pedals line up, buttons rattle, squeaks everywhere, things dropping off.
General comments?
General wear and tear of the car is poor and does not stand the test of time.
Diesel engine is priceless, constantly giving 50mpg, and very reliable.
Suspension is unstable at best, even with new globes.
Brakes don't inspire any confidence at all and overheat too quick.
