► Summary
The ZX is an underrated car. Despite the low prices, it is difficult to get rid of. Citroen in the ZX resigned from unusual solutions, e.g. hydropneumatic suspension. The biggest disadvantage is the high failure rate of the car and the imperfections of the interior. Not the most expensive parts are readily available.
Good driveability. Nice engine dynamics. Difficult to resell
