Launched at the 1986 Paris Motor Show and produced up until 1998, the Citroen AX is a compact hatchback passenger car featuring excellent aerodynamics, a lightweight design, fully independent suspension, and outstanding fuel economy. This 1992 example is a Citroen AX GT, a performance-oriented model with a fuel-injected 1.4-liter engine shared with the Peugeot 205 XS. The car is said to have remained with its original owner in Portugal until it was purchased and imported by the seller in 2021. Remaining highly original and with approximately 138k kilometers (86k miles) showing on the odometer, this Citroen AX GT is now being offered for auction out of Pennsylvania.
Designed with a focus on fuel economy, the Citroen AX employs a highly aerodynamic and lightweight design with extensive use of plastic panels and varying thicknesses of steel throughout its structure. This 1992 example is finished in red and features custom pinstriping, integrated front fog lights, body-colored fender flares, a rear wing, a rear window wiper, an optional sunroof, recessed door handles, dual mirrors, “GT” badging, an oval tailpipe, and 13” four-spoke wheels dressed in 165/65 Laufen tires from 2020. The seller notes that the car is unmodified and remains in very good original condition. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The cabin is appointed with black vinyl and cloth upholstery featuring striped seat centers and deviated red piping. Accessories include folding rear seats, black carpet floor mats with red edging, a three-spoke steering wheel, optional power windows, air conditioning, a rear window defroster, analog Jaeger instrumentation, and an aftermarket Alpine stereo. Upgraded speakers are also mounted on the rear parcel shelf.
This Citroen is equipped with a fuel-injected 1.4-liter inline-four engine that delivers up to 84 HP to the front wheels by way of a 5-speed manual transmission. The seller indicates the car was serviced before being imported in 2021 and may be due for an oil change.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a spare tire, some documentation, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “Meet the 1992 Citroen AX GT, a true rarity imported from Portugal in 2021. This clean and all-original gem was hunted down by a dedicated enthusiast who spent over two years searching for the perfect AX. Unlike its counterparts, often falling into the hands of young modifiers, this AX GT had the good fortune of staying with its original owner until it made its way to the USA. Loved, serviced, and always tucked away in a garage, this AX GT is in impeccable condition. No rust, no leaks—just a smooth and new-like performance. For those seeking an authentic and untouched piece of automotive history, this 1992 Citroen AX GT is a dream come true, promising a driving experience that's as pure as the day it was made.”

My first car was a white Citroen AX Sport; what a great car. It was quick, direct, and reliable. I loved it. It was like driving a go-kart daily; what a fun.
Back in the 80s and 90s these were very popular in the UK, the GT being the most popular varient. A great piece of nostalgia.
