1994 Citroen ZX Aura review from UK and Ireland

Heaters Failed - When I bought the car the heaters were working perfectly, then all of a sudden they just stopped.

Burst Shock - My front left shock burst and produces an annoying clunking noise over uneven road surfaces and speed bumps.

Dash Lights - A common problem from what I have read, there is only one dash light on, this could possible be due to the cars 'always on' lights.

Tyre Wear - Again a common problem with my zx, it eats tyres like no tomorrow, but that'll be due to my driving style.

Internally.

I've got to admin, the seats from the zx are as extremely comfortable, you just fall back and melt into them, this is then let down with the horrible dash features and layout. Yuck! Everything looks so bland and uninteresting.

Exterior.

To look at the car is dated, not very attractive to a young drivers (early 20's) like myself, all my fellow driver friends have expensive moddified cars, I don't however I can't complain, it's not the worse I've driven.

Performance.

Now this I can really sing and dance about. What this car lacks in looks and gadget, it really makes up in grunt! I have the 1.8l 8v which rolled out the factory at 103bhp, and I love every horse of it, off the mark it can take pretty much most things on the road, I've eaten and spat over a lot of 2L's who think it's a sheep.

The acceleration off its amazing, and top end is 120+ (darn speedo).

Reliable as hell, and amazingly flexible at corners.

Electrics.

So far they've been good, I've kitted the car with a full install. New CD player, front speakers, back speakers, 6x9's and a sub, but when I leave the face plate on it seems to drain my battery. ODD.
