Citroen AX GT: PH Ad Break
Only Citroen could compare the AX to a heavyweight boxer!
And though the advert is old (the comment about unleaded petrol proves that), the meaning behind it remains relevant. Cars built small and light can comfortably compete with physically bigger, lardier, more powerful cars. They go down as 'giant-killers' in the motoring journalist's little red book of car categories.
Obviously we're not suggesting cars should be built like the AX again; they must pass proper crash tests now so there's no point on harking about that. But the latest C1 has a kerbweight of 840kg thanks to modern construction techniques. A 1.2-litre, 110hp three-cylinder turbo was introduced with the C4 Cactus recently. Using those figures you get 130hp per ton. If 'GT' doesn't suit, how about VTS? Come on Citroen, make it happen...
