disgusting piece of shit

the interior is of such low quality, the metal chassis can be seen in the gaps of the plastic decorations. it's prone to constant breakdown because of the shitty suspension it has, the gas mileage is bad and most of them come with velour seats and I hate velours.

my parent had 3 of these so far, theres still one of these shits (even a GTI) in our garage, rusting away.

I hate these gay cars, the owners suck and are idiots that think that they know better than everybody else, when everybody else is just enjoying the road without having to carry a fuckton of tools with them all the time because of potential breakdowns.

>it's prone to constant breakdown because of the shitty suspension it has

Confirmed for never having actually owned a hydropneumatic Citroen. If the system is looked after they're fine, if you don't service them properly then of course they can be unreliable just like anything else but they aren't a guaranteed fault waiting to happen. Then again what do I know, my hydropneumatic Citroen is fucked in just about every way possible.

> the gas mileage is bad
Buy a diesel one and run it on vegetable oil then. Besides, they were a high-ish end car when they were new and those people care less about fuel efficiency.

Have you ever needed to replace a vent on one of these things? It's hell. Time consuming, dirty and cancer inducing because of LHM everywhere.
But what do I know? You're right, I personally never owned one. But I drove several BX, an XM, which was really neat desu (but it broke down, the suspension (strut? Don't know the terms in english yet) sprung through the bonnet and killed it and a Xantia.

But I don't like them.
If you live in france it may be possible to have fun with them, but everywhere else you get retarded looks and you have to worry about not breaking it, otherwise you lose time by fixing yourself or lose a shitton of money because of expensive repair shops.

I'm petty when it comes to that.
>>
>>15222837
> sprung through the bonnet

That's a common problem with the Xantia but I wasn't aware that it was an issue on BX's and XM's. I think it's a rust issue or some bracket or something gets weak over time and breaks suddenly. From what I know the only way to tell how close the part is to failing is the disassemble the top end of the suspension.

Yeah, that thing is called camber plates (? domlager in german), it got fixed as the issue was seen before, but the fix was bad, so it just destroyed itself. The resulting damages were so severe (other parts got damaged too, I forgot what exactly it was, it's been a while already, maybe even a decade already), so the whole car had to get scrapped. there was other stuff needing fixing too, so that failure was the point of no return.

I hate citroen.
Sure, it's fun that their logo looks like the >> on the left side of 4chan, but it's not worth the hassle.


Here's a pic related to OP. I'd like to drive one, but I guess I never will, so it fits ITT.
