First of all, it's French, it's ugly, it's a 106 in drag, and it's unreliable. It's engine is terrible (it can't match a VTEC) and it doesn't handle properly. It looks like it's worth £1.50 when it's modded. It can't do 0-60 in 3 secs and if it can, the engine will last about as long as the residual value. It makes you look like a wanna be boy racer who doesn't know as much about cars as he'd have you believe. If your feet are bigger than size 7, you can't drive this car because the peddles are far too close together. It's bad unless you are a girl who isn't bothered that underneath that "chic" exterior lies an unsophisticated chassis set up and a dire driving position that rivals budget airlines for comfort.
I beg you. Don't buy a Citroen Saxo VTS. Get a CRX SiR instead and save your dignity and respect. Plus girls like it a lot more than a tarted up, French shopping trolley with a chassis set up by neanderthals with a bias towards under steer. Verdict: Smells of garlic and lots of visits to the dealer. Steer clear. Unless you have one, in which case you'll be steering into a tree.
