Citroen XM Forum

Smiles all round, everyone's a winner! Happiest for Russ though....he deserves it after his recent bad luck.

It might seem to the outsider that things happened very quickly, but it's just how we XM types roll

Congrats on the new motor Russ, I hope it goes some way to helping deal with the loss of the other one.
I'm sure you'll have it perfected in no time - don't forget to swap over your window switches and headlight lenses!

But seriously, I'm glad a horrible event has had a better outcome than it looked originally.

Good health to enjoy it

It was good to hear that a new owner has been found Jim and Rob is clearly an enthusiast who will look after the car! With regards, Matthew T.

why hang around!!

Thanks Ciaran and Rohan. Yes I have thought of the switches... They will be swapped over. Headlights were totally lost I'm afraid.. apart from one plastic lense amazingly. I rescued it. So I now have three spare! Useful!! The cars original headlights I still have, but they are in a bad way internally. All the silvering has gone. The mandarin cars headlights are very good.
