 Gordon D's recommendation | |
Driveable hatchback with reasonable internal room.
Poor fuel economy, slipping clutch, poor visibilty,very plastic interior.
The Citroen Xsara 1600 isnt the best of cars for fuel economy, about 40 mpg on a run and the layout of controls leaves a lot to be desired, try looking for the rear screen demist or electric window switches while your driving! Rear visibility is poor due to the high tail and large pillars block the view at the sides of the windscreen. Very plastic interior and the seats are average. Watch out for someone steeling the spare wheel and jack which are underneath the car. Worst part of the car is the clutch which has slipped since around 10000 miles, not bad enough to warrant replacement and in any case i've heard this is a fault on them.
