1993 Citroen ZX review from UK and Ireland
"A fantastic car, but I wonder why there was no T-16?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major in particular. I had a nail go through the sidewall of a brand new Michelin Pilot, which was a bummer.
The exhaust rusted through, but that's because the previous owner had fit a Kwik-fit botch-up and it hung down too far. I noticed that it had been scraped underneath and this ripped it out.
The gear stick makes a rattling noise at 70mph (sigh) and I've replaced several bits bar the stick itself!
General comments?
One minor gripe, why don't Citroen use screws? They seem to clip everything together and this causes things to rattle! I hate rattles and vibrations!
Other than that, it's quick and fun and handles superbly. You don't realise just how good until you drive something else!
Poor fuel economy, compared to what I'm used to, and insurance is high at group 15. I'm only 21!
