when it's working...

Our AX already did 250.000 km! Of course with some little problems in the last time, but nearly nothing we couldn't fix by ourselves! A really great car with an undestroyable motor. By the way, it doesn't need more than 5 liters Diesel / 100 km, which really is great for such an old car!

My Renault Clio needs about 7-8 liters.... :? That's f***ing expensive! :roll:

[zaqrack]

which model year?


our AX is 1989, 3door, white, 1.0 fuel engine (also 5l/100km)
but it has only 120000km
too bad I broke the wheel suspension now its waiting to be fixed/sold

but I also love this car.

I have a Citroen too : a blue Saxo.
I'll go to Germany for summer 2005 meeting with it, so everyone will see it.

[DieselJoe]

which model year?

It's from '91, my father has to drive a lot.
Don't know exact motor details, just that it's a Diesel. 3 doors, too, colour is red (as nearly every AX :mrgreen:).

I'll go to Germany for summer 2005 meeting with it, so everyone will see it.

Let's see which of our cars will still be running then... :lol:

Does this mean you'll be there ? Good.

[DieselJoe]

I already told before in that thread. :lol:

If it takes place in Hameln, it would only be around 70 km away from me!

Let's bring back alive this topic.
In the last 3 years Sebastien Loeb won with Citroen Xsara.
This year he has a new car : Citroen C4.
Will this car be as good as Xsara and help Loeb to win a 4th championship title ?
Will new evolution of Ford Focus help Marcus Gronholm to earn a 3rd championship title ? He was close to Loeb last year.
Will Subaru be back at its best after a deceiving season in 2006 ?

First answer this week-end with Rally of Monte-Carlo.
So far : 2 steps raced, both won by Loeb before Sordo and Gronholm. It seems C4 is as fast as Xsara was. But will it be as reliable...? That's the main question...

Loeb is already boring. And on the other hand, WRC is not that strong nowadays.

Loeb is already boring. And on the other hand, WRC is not that strong nowadays.

Main problem is that Gronholm and Loeb are way much better than the other pipsqueaks. Therefore, general classification is these 2 guys at top - big gap - the others.

edit : little modification : it seems C4 WRC is quite faster than Ford Focus. So far (after 5 steps) Loeb is leading, Sordo is 2nd (C4 too) and Gronholm 3rd. Others are already very far behind (already more than 1 minute late), especially Peter Solberg (8th) while Atkinson, his teammate at Subaru, is 4th.

Incredible! Loeb is only 3rd in overall!

Yep, he shitted his race in Norway in ES12 and 13, loosing 8 minutes overall into snow walls.

This season will be exciting at the end: Loeb vs Gr?nholm, finally the latter has a good car too (or Loeb has a worse?)

[Chulk]

I think it's a bit of both. New C4 is not as good as Xsara was and Focus evolution is showing that it was worthy. Anyway Loeb is better than Gr?nholm so Leob will win.
