It does qualify for the X Rally Will, however it's not what you saw (AFAIK...)

I also recall an XM going to be body kitted...

Good. Otherwise this could run and run...

I'm not at all sure about a bodykitted XM. prima-facie it all sounds a bit iffy... Anybody got any pictures of an XM so fitted?

I'm not a fan of body kitted cars, especially XM's. I'm not even totally convinced by the extra red light panel you could buy for the number plate recess.

Well all I can say, is I hope project X is worth the wait, with all this anticipation mounting!

In response to Jim's earlier request here are some photos from a Citroen XM 'Accessories' brochure of the early 1990's and a slightly more extravagant example seen at ICCCR. I have no doubt others have further interesting shots! Regards, Matthew T.
