Re: Captain Slow want's an XM
I've been thinking recently of passing on my S1 24V LHD. Goes like stink and is a very good car, but my wife keeps telling me we've now got one too many XMs and I keep thinking of going back to a CX GTi Turbo. So guess it could be for sale if you're serious about getting one Captain Slow?
Cheers

Re: Captain Slow want's an XM
I'm a bit wary of Scottish cars currently. I won a 405mi16 on eBay a few weeks ago, got it delivered to Southampton, and then found out it was a wreck underneath. The rot had killed it

Re: Captain Slow want's an XM
Well, I didn't think I'd see you sell one of the 24v'ers Paul!?
Are you sure that's the way forward to clear space just to
save some of my old s1's!?

Xm rot is not a scotish thing... its an xm thing in general if not caught quickly enough quickly spreads..
