1999 Citroen Xantia SX review from Gibraltar
"Magic carpet ride"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In 5 years of ownership absolutely nothing went wrong with the car. The rev counter got stuck once, but a new battery sorted that out.
The seats had started to show slight signs of wear after 5 years.
General comments?
Not a quick car, but handles like it is on rails with its Citroen hydraulic suspension. The most comfortable and spacious car you can buy in its class.
