Vince's xm - 2.1TD daily driver

[Vince]

Thanks guys, here are some others i took at the same time....





I will try and take some more when im out and about driving at night, there are some great little narrow lit link roads between the backs of office blocks that have great light

That is looking lovely Vince

You do take some very special pictures I thoroughly enjoy them!

[Vince]

Glad you liked them

I love looking at citroen pictures, i spent a while yesterday looking through the g section blog on facebook that Kev off FCF sent me an invite to, great eye candy

The xm is looking ok on the whole. I havent driven it loads in the bad weather so its ridden through ok condition wise. Now that the weather is (hopefully) getting warmer we can all start to to mess about with ours cars again

What i liked about these pictures was that the OSF panels all look the same colour as in real life there is a slight difference between the wing bonnet and drivers door

Well i can honestly say im ready for a shift in the weather to a bit of dry and warmth

Im going through a bit of a tough patch at the moment in my new job as there is alot to be done, and im really trying to enjoy my free time away from work to feed my mind and keep me with a healthy balance between the both.

Ive woken up this morning thoroughly in the mood to spend some time with the xm....cleaning it up, or a nice drive out somewhere. But damn...its meant to snow later so although its dry at the moment outside, you can bet its too cold

If it hasnt snowed later im definately going to get out in it for some quality "citroentime" Ive been in the "eurobox" all week and yesterday Linda tried to understand the attraction to older cars over new ones. It doesnt help that both her and the kids prefer the new renault scenic but i think finally Linda has moved on from her idea of us selling the xm now that i have the renault to use. I think this has been put to bed not by her love of the xm, but moreso because for the first time in such a long time we are reaching our next payday and still have money in the bank

I so enjoy having an old and in my eyes classic car to drive as and when i want to, and in my book at least thats worth the relevant meagre expense each month to keep hold of.

Oh well heres to hoping the weather stays snow free today...for all of our sakes

Well i can honestly say im ready for a shift in the weather to a bit of dry and warmth

I'm certainly ready for it to stop raining every other day Vince... Cold and dry I can take but wet is not my cup of tea at all...

Hope it clears up enough for you to play XMs. I'm off in a bit to play RX-8s and look over a V6 Xantia a friend has newly acquired...

[russ92xmsed]

I share the frustration with the weather chaps. It is absolutely chucking it down here....no tinkering with the XM today. I was going to see if I could solve the seatbelt warning light. For some reason I have a need to fix it!!!

So the RX-8 is still about then Jim. Is your friend treating it as a challenge?!

[Vince]

Oh for the wish of having a dry heated double garage....lol

[citroenxm]

Vince check out your xm blog on fcf that started with your xantia.. ive added a little bit to it yesterday...

[MTXM]

Do you have seat-belt warning feature fitted then Russ?? Regards, Matthew T.
