Faults:

New gearbox needed when I got the car.

Heater and fuel pipes split in the engine.

CV joints and brake pipes needed renewing.

Seats were badly worn.

General Comments:

This is my first car to own. It has been very reliable and quite nippy for a 1.0 litre engine.

The interior was very dull and flimsy, but after putting in a GT interior its a lot better now!

I haven't had any major problems with the car, just general wear and tear.

It doesn't handle to well with a lot of body roll, but quite happily goes along at 80mph.

It becomes very underpowered with people in the back, but then its only a 1.0 litre engine so you'd expect this.

Overall, the car is a great car to own as a first car. Easy to fix and work on. I'd definitely buy another one and recommend it to someone.

Faults:

New Clutch.

New Headlight.

New Spark Plugs.

Some Minor welding on the B Post.

General Comments:

For all the people who claim that Citroen Ax's are built like crisp packets and are unsafe. I would like to let you all know I just walked away from a 20-30Mph crash with a Ford Transit Van, both myself and my passenger were OK. unfortunately that's more that can be said for my GT, it now has no front end, mainly due to the Bumper detaching and sending both headlamps skyward and bending the bonnet.

Needles to say I am not best pleased and I will post again when I get it all fixed.

Faults:

Two rust spots above each of the front tyres under the bonnet.

Drum brakes - worn shoes.

Tail pipe replacement.

New Eng. Coil.

Replacement fuel filter and fuel pump.

General Comments:

When I first purchased the AX I was pleasantly surprised how nippy she was.

However I purchased the car in February and in the eight months that I have owned it there has been an ongoing problem that I cabt get rid of - Chugging or 'Kangeroo Juice' It has been in and out of the garage more than its been on the road, and I have had plenty of work done - New spark plugs, the carburetor has been cleaned, new fuel pump... but no one has been able to get rid of the chugging.

Faults:

Headlights not working when picked up.

Drivers electric window not working.

Badly rusted fuel filler cap.

General Comments:

Well my GT is in a good overall condition, nothing that requires any big spending. so I can't really complain.

It handles well and its outstandingly quick for a 1360cc.

However the cabin looks like it was designed by a blind French person who hand no hands and no design qualifications!

Its well worth taking the time to look for a well maintained model, there are some out there!
