2003 Citroen Xsara reviews

Citroen Xsara hdi diesel 90 lx 2003

This is my 3rd Xsara now, I have had 2 petrols and now a hdi diesel. My experience of all three cars is great comfort, in fact I would go as far as to say the most comfy car I’ve ever driven. All the seats feel like armchairs, they all drive smooth and are quite responsive particularly the diesel which is actually quite powerful and quiet! The petrols are reasonable on fuel but not great, however the 2.0hdi diesel is fantastic. I’ve had 60mpg out of it. Most Xsara’s come with full electric windows, mirrors, air conditioning, nice sound system etc... so are reasonable on specification. The only common faults I’ve found on them are rear bushes and shocks, and the electric windows can stick. Other than that they are very reliable. I would recommend the Xsara hdi diesel 90 lx, as it’s the best engine and is also cheap on tax and insurance.
