1990 Citroën AX GT VF7ZAZW0001ZW2689 with just 17k miles (27,703 kilometers).

Lightweight hot-hatch is a a great example of how France made the most of a simple / lightweight / rugged platform. At just 785kg (vs. 826kg for the 106 Rallye) the Citroën makes the most of its 100hp 1,4 liter engine.

This one was built in Japan to JAF N-Class competition (N1/N2). Typically these cars would compete in gymkhana / dirt trial / club circuit events. Similar to the European AX Cup / AX Trophy / Group N-spec.

• One-make wheels (Speedline?) for the AX one-make series
• Close-ratio gearbox
• Mechanical limited-slip differential (ノンスリ)
• Roll bar / roll cage
• Koni dampers
• Eibach springs
• Reinforced anti-roll bars (uprated stabilizer bars, front/rear)
• Registered as 2-seater (rear seats removed and car officially a 2-person vehicle)
• Service history / maintenance records present

These are very engaging cars and they make you work for your swiftness. Would be at home on the Autocross track or drivers education days; tours with your car-friends and hand out with the Citroën crowd.
