Are Amazon Green Saxo's cursed?
Got my VTR last month, and everything is going wrong with it!!! The N/S driveshaft has had it, the clutch needs replacing and theres some welding needs doing....I didn't think Saxo ownership was meant to be so unhappy, lol

I'm beginning to regret the day I ever clapped eyes on it....I wish I had never got rid of my old saxo, the only thing that ever went wrong with that was the coil pack

My Amazon Green 1.1 has just put a 750 pound hole in my wallet, definately cursed it just seems to be one problem after another at the moment, i knew i should of walked away when the previous owner wrote me a receipt for the car and tried spelling Citroen with a 'S'...just imagine what chaos he caused when he started playing round with the electrics lol, and eBay/Halfords parts.
It was very messy, just about cured all of his mess now i think (and hope).

I had already had a new clutch and a full service when i found out i had the other problems, so i couldn't get rid of it as i'd just spent 400 quid on it so i got the other work done cos i couldnt afford a new car after the clutch
