An early 1990s design, the
Citroën ZX was criticised for not showing traditional
Citroën design flair—the only bit of heritage was the single large windscreen wiper. Mechanical simplicity and plain styling made it common as a family run-around. Its most famous moment was in
Ronin where a ZX in police colours is cut up and crashed, possibly by a
BMW M5[?].
It was sold mostly in diesel format, which didn't help its dull image, although a "Sports" version was produced, yet badged 2.0 16v.
