Citroen XM Forum

So a couple of pics
Were just in the process of working through earth issues at the moment
Once were happy its not going to set fire to itself and we have working lights locks ect ect
We will take her to the unit and get the suspension sorted

Few more pictures of the xm
Will get a bit more intresting very soon

Like like a pretty solid base to start from, the rust is well on its way of course, have you had it running yet?
I like the way nature has taken hold in the boot lol

D

Yeah fires straight up no dramas
Brakes seem ok to there free the disc dont seem that bad
Cant get into the boot yet ha ha

Flip the back seat base forward on its front hinges.
Release the locks top corner of the rear seat back and it swings down forward.
You should then be able to clear anything stored in the boot area.
If you particularly want the boot lock released I will take you through how to do it from inside without damage.

It looks reasonably solid, with only the front jacking points showing obvious signs of rot. It will be intersting to see what it's like underneath, especially the rear chassis rails.

I can't see the first digit clearly in the photo, but it looks like the Rp number is 5702, giving a production date of 19 June 1992.

I would say that is 5702. Within a couple of days of my two. And KBan I believe.

That is an interesting project and I would certainly make sure all the hydraulic pipework underneath including around the rear subframe is good! It looks like the car has retro-fitted leather from the blue carpet and central console! Regards, Matthew T.

Then its not a genuine sed then.. sed had sunroof and electronic air con as standard over S and base models..

It's original leather. The carpet has bleached due to the sunshine. Standing cars seem to suffer more.
