Citroen CX review covering 1986 - 1990

Wednesday 18 July 2007

Although enthusiasts wistfully opine that the CX was the last of the ‘real’ Citroens, the French company probably wouldn’t trade their current financial well being with the state it was in when the Series II CX was launched back in 1986. It seems that rounding the quirkiness off their cars paid, although like their sister company Peugeot, Citroen have never since cracked the big car market. The CX’s successor, the XM, didn’t garner any great affection and the last of the CX models are getting increasingly desirable.Desirable yes, but a practical used proposition? That’s another matter altogether. Although the engines are often surprisingly robust, there are minefields to be tiptoed through when searching for a used CX. Here we’ll highlight the most significant caveats and pluses, but as with many other aspects of CX ownership, once you take the plunge, you’re going to be pretty well off the automotive mainstream. Bonne chance!
