Citroën ZX Hatchback 1.4i Neon 3d (2000/V) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Not very sought after, so used prices are low. Hard to find as much car for as little money.
Costs
40 mpg, and no repair costs so far in a year of ownership.

On the road
Driving
Smooth, comfortable ride, but a lot of body roll when cornering.
Performance
Good for a 1.4i,. Low gearing helps acceleration but means a lot of noise at 70 mph.

Living with it
Reliability
Never broken down or failed to start.
Image
Old hat compared to the Focus and even its sister 306, but you won"t get laughed at.
Comfort
Good seats and driving position, but few comforts - Neon is a base spec model plus a sunroof.

Security and Service
Security
Can't imagine it being too hard to break into.
Service
Never used main dealers - too expensive.
