Old Top Gear 1996 - Citroen Saxo

[@matthewgodwin3050]

Love how Quentin criticises the Saxo interior for being plain, yet sings the praises of the Tesla Model 3, which makes the Citroen's look lavish in comparison.

Great to see your uploads

My dad had a T reg 1.1 East Coast in this blue colour loved the interior with the multi colored seat belts.

I had the same but v reg yellow gray knob and all different colour seatbelts

Welcome back!

Count Quentula must have been paid by Citroen, as he ignored the awful driving position, and how anyone above a UK size 7 foot would depress the throttle and brake or clutch and brake at the same time, and the comedy build quality. He sang the praises of the MG6 too, and was a regular at Leicester magistrates for giving cars a haircut!

[@bghoody5665]

2:44 He very plainly mentions the "cramped" driving position.

I'd argue the Saxo build quality isn't too bad. The C3 was the one that fell to bits

[@retardray5701]

It's the kind of car that feels like it should fall apart at any moment, but all the key components are actually very solid

[@Shane-zx4ps]

The best small cars back in those days were the Toyota starlet and Nissan micra, the rest was only trash in comparison

When even Quentin says the styling is dull, you know the company messed up 😂 . One of the many ways Peugeot turned Citroën from a builder of interesting cars, to dull as ditchwater normie mobiles nobody aspired nor aspires to own 😅
