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

Hi There

You are biding Citroen xm 2.0 Turbo CT auto mileage: 94 446

Good points:
- car is starting without problem
- transmission works ok
- brakes-abs ok
- hydraulic works ok
- tyres ok
- no warring lights on dashboard
- suspension spheres changed year ago (still under warranty at Westroen)
- no rust at all
- full service history

Car is ready to go, drives fine, MOT and TAX to 02/2010

Bad points:
- some small oil leak
- exhaust need repair
- front right window need repair (goes with spare mechanism)
- left rear window need repair
- ventilation fan (heating blower) need repair
- lcd display have some missing points
Car goes with some spare parts in the boot (some ecu-controls modules, switches, ryealys, extra ECU and hydroactive ECU from XM 2.0 16V and others)

Please no time wasters, cash on collection within 3-4 days.

Car was driven by citroen enthusiast. Still looks good and drive as should be for its age.

Happy biding and good luck.
Looks OK - in fact quite nice (for an auto! ;) )
You want to watch those warring lights on the dashboard mind!

It does look well, hopefully it will be out of reach of the evil puggerisers.

That looks the game, and it'll look a whole lot classier with a set of alloys.

Shame about the bonnet, I feel for him, they've done similar to mine, it's fatal. Something attracts people *too* much towards XMs' bonnets...My theory is that obviously they're the perfect surface to write and express your deeper feelings -escpecially in black, they're just like a blackboard!

cheers

The scrawl on the bonnet actually looks like "XMx" - sad silly b stards :(

The booty in the boot looks enticing - quite an interesting "spot the part" Citroen anorak
challenge for hours of amusement on these cold dark winter nights! :lol:

I fear this could end up going for 300quid for the engine - IIRC, it did have a buy it now which looked like it would
avoid the Puggerisers but that's now (foolishly by the seller) been allowed to drop off with there being no reserve.
Nice looking car and something I'm sure Jorgy or myself would be interested in had it been a manual...
