Hi I was considering buying a Citroen ZX 16v for my next car as I liked the way the 306 handled and want something similar for my next car. I was just wondering if anyone knew if the ZX shared similar handling to the 306 xsi?

a little lighter plus a little stiffer, a bit more "pointy" on turn in.

the 306 is more predictable when pushed beyond it's grip limits, the rear mounts react slower then the ZX which enable the driver to control it but i like better the sharpness and turn-in of the Citroen.
the problem lies in the family , compare to the
ZX volcane 1.9, the ZX16V handle less safe and loose grip earlier.
the problem is the hefty engine causing radical weight transfer while the Volcane light all alloy engine keeps it's balance.
