Citroën Xantia Hatchback 1.9 D SX 5d (1994/M) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Exellent value. A lot of car for the money.
Costs
40mpg urban and cheap insurance - what more to be said?
-
On the road
Driving
Nice to drive, but a little predictable and dull.
Performance
Non-turbo diesel, so acceleration whiplash is unlikely.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Needed all 5 suspension spheres shortly after purchase, but non-franchised Citroen specialist did the lot and replaced hydraulic fluid for £260. Not a murmer of trouble since.
Image
I don't have an image, so economy and reliability are more important to me.
Comfort
Very comfy. SX model, so very well equipped (PAS, EW, ESR, EM, RCL) and despite its age, everything still works perfectly.
-
Security and Service
Security
Deadlocks and alarm as standard. Never been tampered with.
Service
No contact with main dealer. Plenty of non-franchised specialists about.
