Citroen 1994 ZX Hatchback
  • Economy

    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Cheap to buy. Fairly cheap to run.

    Costs

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Whole new break assembly £200. Sporty exhaust costs more than regular ZX.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Power/weight ratio makes it a good laugh. Sits a bit too high, though.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Quicker than comparable hatchbacks.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Mechanics are good. Electrics are starting to wane.

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Looks sportier than other ZXs. Colour makes a difference (mine's Black).

    Comfort

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Sporty seats feel good, but can be cramped on long distances (I'm 6' 3", but it's got more legroom than a new 3 door Golf).

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Keypad and alarm, although someone just smashed the lock off my passenger door!
