Selling off one (or bits
) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Hi Folks,
A local (Northern Ireland - Fermanagh to be precise) XM owner has contacted me to let me know that a mechanic friend of his is looking to sell his XM.
1997 2,1 TD SX in black with grey cloth - no MOT but looks good and starts on the button - c. £300. [Fergus at 028 686 41648]
Thats all I know about it, and please contact Fergus if you are interested in buying or finding out more. I saw it a few years ago and think it might be a manual.

Well I finally got to see the car last week. It was indeed a manual.
159000 on the clock. Shortly to be mine...
Though it may be a little while before it makes it to this side of the Irish Sea.
Originally registered in England on P- something...
Almost there...

Well we'll look forward to seeing the pics when you get it home
Can't believe that was over in Co. Fermanagh all this time and I've never come across it
I wonder did Robert know of it before he was contacted about the sale.
