Charles's 2.1 SD Manual (formerly Citroenxm's)

Yea, when I got the car initially, I immidieatly thought so far so good, shes an SD, she is a GOOD colour I can live with, but heart sank when there was no ABS fitted..

My SECOND regret now, selling this one!!

What stunning results there!

Paul, don't sweat it...i can transform almost any car to this standard ; ) get your 24 valve up and running and we could work something out to give it some loving

[David Hallworth]

Wow. Both of those cars look stunning. I had my XM detailed in the summer but as it's silver the reward isn't the same.

Charles, I'm intrigued... How come your Range Rover Classic is wearing a V plate? (I'm a Range Rover buff as well as Citroen's!)

Couple of hard days there..only took 3.5 hours to get home. Not bad really. ..
Someone asked what do I think of the colour?
I really like it : )

I'll stick some more pictures up Charles probably tomorrow night. ..im off to soak my weary bones : )

You deserve a very good soak!

Vince, for those who haven't met him, is a super guy who works his socks off, and for the exceptional quality of work is exceptional value.

David - it was manufactured and then retained by Land Rover for 4 years before being registered. Judging by the bodywork, I think they must have used it as their salt water test vehicle! It could be superb, the 300tdi diesel engine (with Bosch pump) is a gem, but I am having a fight with the supplying dealer as to their responsibility for paying for the necessary remedial work. Anyway, it is going to become my machine polish test vehicle!

[David Hallworth]

Ahh! I thought it might of been late registered.

The classics were bad for corrosion. Especially around the tailgates. We have had two Classic RR's. A 3.5 and a 3.9. Always hankered after a Soft Dash LSE but never found a good one. Have got a couple of 4.6 P38's at the moment. It's amazing the difference between them and the Classic. If you ever spot a good Classic then let me know

Am eyeing this one up at the moment mainly because it's got the Warwick Brooks Handling Pack and a Supercharger

Well, great reaction on the Mercedes 190 forum and MBClub - someone in the former asked what you used on the chrome, while a NW member at the latter has asked for your details!

No daytime XM photos Yet Charles, or you in the process of dooing them and Im TOO eager!

[Charles M]

I had a long drive today so the car is pretty mucky. You might be waiting a little while until I have a chance to clean her Paul! She is a working car after all.
