WELCOME TO THE BX MAINTENANCE PAGE
WHY CITROËN?
This is a good question especially if you haven't driven a *real* Citroën yet.
Citroën cars are unique, non-conventional interesting cars and they also give you some riding joy,
comfort and some excitement. I am talking about Xantia, CX, BX, XM, SM,
AMI,
2CV, AX, DS, GS Traction Avant and all other real Citroën models here.
Those cars produced by a unique concept of *travellers comfort first*
along with a unique technique *hydropneumatics*, you can understand what I mean comparing these
models by German and Japanese cars better.
There is a great site for all Great Citroen models, you can see all those great cars in that site, Thanks Mr. Moors.
Citroën cars production line ruled by inventors, creators, mad scientists, until conservative PSA bought
Citroën (Peugeot), but those cars are still around and concept is still there and tried to be copied by
some other companies (Such as Mercedes). First of all I take all those models as *hobby* cars too
along with daily use cars. If you would like to get the best from those cars, better be prepared to s
eek and grab lot more information as you do on average cars. And they still are *Exciting cars*.
