1991 Citroen ZX Advantage review from UK and Ireland
"Good, driveable hatchback. Expensive parts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Planetary set in the gearbox which cost £600.
New starter motor, £25 from a breaker.
Drive shaft, £125.
Very expensive top hose, £21 from a main dealer for a bit of curvey rubber!
Annoying niggles like the central locking not working on the driver's door.
General comments?
Great handling car, much nicer than a Golf in my opinion but early models seem beset by niggling problems. Go for a later model.
Beware, pattern parts are not widely available and original parts are ludicrously expensive.
