Citroen Ax Gt

The mighty little Citroen AX GT was my first car - a 1990 H reg AXGT in red 3dr of course not the dull 5dr with no style that was the job of the MK2 Golf Gti which looked great either way. The Ax was the fastest normally aspirated 1360cc engine produced and in 5th gear at 30mph could out accelarate an Escort Cosworth up to 55mph!!! I have had 14 in total the last was in 2006 so well overdue for another now. Plus other greats such as the Mk1 Mr2 and my Mk1 Golf GTi, they are all great fun cars but the AX is probably my fave of all.

    "Quick" at the time, rather than fast. Used reliable 1.4 engine in a body that weighed about the same as a paper napkin.

    The car pictured, though, is actually a VW Golf GTI! Still quite a few AX's around in the area of Worcestershire where I live- they're popular with middle-aged female New Agers on low incomes. I believe that they were introduced to replace the Visa.
