1997 Citroen Xantia LXI review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap car with good power and very comfy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear Sphere had to be replaced at a cost of £70 in total.
Oil leak.
General comments?
Very comfy car and quiet inside.
Rear seats have massive amounts of room, as does the boot.
Suspension is very good on all surfaces, only thing it does lack is any feeling through the steering wheel, however, it can be pushed and when it is it doesn't feel as if it wants to slide.
Fuel gauge seems to stay at 1/4 then drop quickly.
