5yrs ago I bought a
Citroen ZX Turbo diesel with 12mts MOT for £425...... It had one fat elderly owner from new whom had washed it with a brillo (yes really) and collapsed the drivers seat.... It looks truly awful as its on a zero maintenance schedule that includes no washing

It keeps going through MOTs having only ever had bulbs n pads...discs are perilously thin... It doesn't leak, heater works, leccy windas work..... I've turned the boost and fuel up... Bit Smokey and goes like stink.... Sat outside my house wearing winter knobblies covered in mud.....

Genuinely one if the best cars I have Ever owned.... But it is a bangernomics car so if it breaks and I can't fix it in 30m then I'm chucking it
I love the ZX. I used to have a 306 Dturbo as a runabout and it was genuinely one of the best cars I've run!
