CITROEN Xantia · photos, packages and modifications

The Citroen Xantia could be said was amongst the leaders of medium class cars. The five-door family car offered an amazingly good ride which was perhaps because of the unique self leveling suspension that the car offered. New and immature drivers were said to abuse the system, which could be controlled by the hand-brake, by bouncing the car when waiting on the signals for the traffic lights to change. It was described be many as a return of the real Citroen model however it had fixed the quirky brakes, the complicated mechanics and the Cyclops eye speedometers.

The Xantia is said to offer you a lot for the money you spend while the floating suspension made the ride very comfortable even at very uneven and rough surfaces and gave an amazing ride control. The car has a light and roomy cabin due to the chassis and built and is also very vastly equipped with the exception of the basic fleet versions. With the 1.6 liter and 16V engine the car sold very well. The Xantia also never felt responsive even at high speeds with the thirsty 3.0l V6 engine which might be due to the futuristic suspension that the car had.
