1993 Citroen ZX avantage review from UK and Ireland
"Very reliable, a relaxing driving experience"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New cam belt fitted (to be on the safe side)
Sticking off-side caliper replaced
Drive-shaft gaiters replaced
Tachometer reconnected.
General comments?
This car has a very positive engine that seems like it will never wear out. It isn't particularly fast, but this has never caused me any problems, and I have been able to have some fun driving it.
Long motorway journeys are spent in total comfort and the cabin is relatively quiet at 70-80mph with astonishingly few rattles for a car of this age and mileage. Over 55mpg has been achieved before now out on the open road.
The car grips well and doesn't roll too badly considering the plushness of the shocks.
Overall I'd say that for £1500 this car was a good buy and I think I'll be keeping mine for a couple more years at least.
