ZX Volcane Sold - getting fixed up

Unread post by NewarkStuart46 »

My 1996 Citroen ZX Volcane 2-litre petrol is reluctantly for sale. It is very little used and could do with a kind owner! I’m only the second owner, having had it for 17 years so can vouch for its genuine 86k miles. Body is remarkably rust-free but being red, has gone matt. Engine, gearbox, brakes, suspension are very good and it has an MoT until Aug next year. Electronics can be problematic but in general the car performs fine. Radio, sun-roof and now windscreen washers have stopped working. A little time and not much spend would restore an attractive hot hatch of its day.
‘How Many Left’ website lists only 18 left registered in UK. So she’s a rare bird.

As I no longer have the energy to attend to the car I’d happily see it go to an appreciative home for £100. We live in Newark-on-Trent.

Now there's a project for someone . . . sounds one to go for.
Could you post a photo, Stuart?

I would happily post a pic of the car - but sadly I’m completely baffled as to how! But obviously I can email which I hopefully will now.

Yes, an XZ is very desirable but very rare indeed... Especially red ones...

Hope you find one :wink:
