Just spotted this on a google search and quite a nice example I thought. http://www.gentrylane.com/s/uncategoriz ... citroen-xm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Being a slightly later S1 12v it has most of the 24v bits, except for the wheels in this case. It must be quite a rare car in that part of the world.
Anyone spot something odd in the rear passenger provisions!
Regards, Matthew T.

Well, with all that black interior, lots of leather and plenty of space it probably feels like a dungeon. Maybe the extra touches have a use... ;)

My thoughts exactly Will, or maybe they just drive a bit crazy over there! It could also be the comfort spheres need replacing! Regards, Matthew T.

The colour matched bumpers and mirrors and wood interior trim suggest to me model year 1991! It is more usual to see the 24v wheels with this spec and I wonder if the painted bumpers etc. and/or wheels have been changed? Regards, Matthew T.

It depends where the car originated from Mathew. The XM was not sold or exported to Canada by Citroen, so is it a French Spec car or German Spec car, which will be different to UK spec..

I suspect the mirrors, scuttle and bumpers have been painted. Note the rear bumper lower trim is painted, which S1 cars never were as standard.

it has earlier, smaller door mirror glass, but later stepped front strut tops. That should help date it.
