Citroen XM Forum

It is the Paxton car. Don't mind the S2 front bumper. Would quite like to fit a set of S1 wood and the leather single spoke wheel if anyone has one. Annoyingly that lovely estate on eBay has both of those things but I don't want an estate.

Unfortunally S1 wood is getting a bit thin on the ground, and S1 single spoke Leather wheels rather scarse due to being fitted to V6 SEi and V6 24v models. Early SED models did NOT have a leather wheel..

Be carefull James, as Will said, a 1991 Manual car should NOT have a Bosch Pump. It should have a Lucas mechanical pump which will be Strictly Diesel Fed only. No funny oil.

Bosch pumps arrived later on in 1992 when there was a switch to EGR and alloy inlet manifold.

I wouldn't fit a woody door trim either, the leather looks better imho.

The Estate Andy is selling is a Series 2 interior.

I would second that keeping the interior all black. Infact I would say an all black leather interior is rarer.

Keep it up guys, all the more for me...

I like the wood trim Paul...very much, but for originalities sake I would always keep what the car was meant to have.

Wheels are different they can be changed in an hour or less!

For the sake of originality, would people "upgrade" a velour interior to leather, or keep it standard.

Thats down to trim preference... I like leather and Wood, so Yes I would do it, but others wouldn't

Peronally, I have found the veour interiors to be more comfortale than the leather.
