If anyone is visiting this show us BX'ers have our own stand alongside the usual Citroen Car Club one. As some of you may know the BX is 30 this year, so it was felt it deserved it's own stand. Feel free to pop over for a chat. Cheers Mark.

Excellent :D I'll most likely be going on the Sunday and more than likely by train... I'll surely pop by and say hello...

That's great having a BX stand. It's time they were properly recognised for the classics they are..

Any XMs on the CCC stand this year?

No XM's that I'm aware of Jim. Should be one there soon though IMHO, the XM is a modern classic. Most of the BX gang will be in attendance over the four days. BX's on display= my Gti 16 Valve, Tim Leech's MK1 DTR, Eoin Sloane's 24,000 mile TGS estate, and ex Phil Chidlows's TGD aka The Red Baron which also did the Classic Challenge back in may. Please feel free to pop over for a chat. :)

I think an XM on the stand next year is a must. I'd nominate my car, but two years in a row would be greedy. :) Exhibitors get free passes for the duration of the show. Batteries need to be disconnected and fuel tanks be no more than a 1/4 full. When would be the XM's 30th birthday be? 2020?

You could always go for 25th anniversary a bit sooner.

Why not enquire if we can have a XM stand in honour of it's 25th birthday. Four XM's to represent the model over it's production run. The earliest S1 and the latest S2 and everything in-between.
