No not hydractive three because the plumbing is 150% more simpler on a c5. I can tell you..

but what the xantia did get for a short while was the c5 type pipe ends..

see my thread about c5 suspension pipe swap advice!!

but they were only fitted for a year in 1999 before going back to the flare and seal setup..

Thought so... oh well! As you point out Paul they are simpler, no interconnected brakes and steering. So no wonder the XM or Xantia weren't fitted to our knowledge..doesn't of course mean they had test mules which were eventually crushed. Interesting about the Xantia mods.

That is interesting, Paul, I hadn't read that before.

I just need to find time to change the engine oil and filter on this XM whilst it's on the ramp, hopefully this weekend, and it'll be ready to be taken for a run.
