2000 Citroen Xantia Exclusive review from Australia and New Zealand
"A Modern Classic - what a beauty"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong - beautifully built and maintained.
General comments?
The best car I've ever had (and I've had some beauties inc a Peugeot 206 GTI)
hydractive suspension just awesome
floats on air at high speed - nothing can match it
beautiful soft leather interior
adaptive gearbox sometimes gets confused (changes too late)
2.0 engine can be noisy with revs
will never own another conventionally suspended car
beautiful to look at and to own
a true Citroen
servicing has been done every 10k kms, which is essential for this car - no penny pinching!
But the rewards this car brings are worth it.
