Hi Matthew

That's interesting... It's definitely written in the Forthcoming Events section of February's Citroënian as being 25-27 May, with the ICCR 9-12 August. I've not collected March's edition from mum's yet, so can't comment on if it has changed since Feb.

Wetherby is definitely still listed on the CCC events calendar on the website too!

The XRally is 325 miles each way for me so am unsure yet.

My apologies Ray and David, after checking the current magazine you are quite correct about the Northern Rally!! I might see you there and who knows we might manage to assemble three V6 between us! With regards, Matthew T.

I keep looking at buying a coach to move 2 XM's at once and sleep in when the cars are out of it.

Saves putting the mileage up on the cars as well!

I think it is only the National rally which is not taking place due to the ICCCR, the Northern one is on.

750 miles to go to the X rally, thats commitment!

This has reminded me of a thought I've had in the back of my mind for some reason - has anyone made an H Van loadrunner? Ok, I know it wouldn't be big enough for transporting XM's about in, but a 6 wheel H Van would be very different.

I did go and see a 6 wheel H-Van about 8 years ago, it was bright yellow and I think it had an engine from a Ford Sierra in it. Im not sure where it is now though, but no, not quite big enough to put an XM inside, you might fit an AX

There will be a 6 wheeled Citroen van at the ICCCR

Crap... just checked my work pattern and the dates for Wetherby are my on call dates, unfortunately someone else already has holiday that weekend too which means I can't make Wetherby either

Looks like I might need to do the XRally if I want to go to anything this year.

David.

CXM rally the weekend of 8th of Sept if it hasn't already been mentioned.

Well I'm off the weekend of CXM but it's about a fortnight before we go to Cuba so will need to see what happens.

I'm really torn at the moment, I want to go to the X Rally but keep looking at the fact it's a 750 mile round trip... That's £250 worth of Petrol in a S1 24v LOL.

I'm also looking at Dean's Country Drive which is quite a bit closer to me so I really dunno!
