It is quite interesting parking our two next to each other. The XM has a bigger nose and stubbier tail. The C5 other way round.
Mind you it's not that surprising considering the C5 was meant to replace the XM...until C6 of course.
I'm astonished at how big the latest Focus is compared to the XM. Makes it look quite average in size!

We'll see if both go. Would be a nice treat for the C5!

I intend to be there :)

And then the old, old question rears it's head. Activa or XM?

It's always a very difficult choice :roll:

I see your dilemma Jim, only cos I am very interested in seeing how an Activa really does handle, so I'd love to see yours there. 8-) you need a Harry Potter wand to shrink one car and take it with you and enlarge it the other end! if only :lol:

I'd avoid anything to do with Harry in the potting shed and take the XM.

Now I have a real problem. I'd like to take both the Activa and the new XM...
