Hi, I last owned an XM in 1994/5 it was a 1990 3.0 SEI manual... lovely car that was written off by a novice female driver. I never got another one and stayed with CX, BX and of late a Xantia.
I joined here as recommended by CitroJim, I'm looking for an item that I guess is really throw away when one of these great cars comes to the end of the road.
I will post this in the wanted / for sale section but didn't want to ask without introducing myself. I'm looking for the box under the bonnet that holds the BS and other ECUs in it. I don't need a lid just the box itself thanks. The item I want is in the bottom right of the picture below.
Stick around and we'll have you back in an XM in no time!
Even if you don't, stay around as this is a very friendly little forum...
Just coming to terms with the modern Series 1 and bit Xantia.... another XM hmm.
Mine was a a low mileage under bonnnet fire model I got that sorted, did the clutch bloody Front head gasket, I was a nice car then a nice young lady that passed her test 6 days before! parked her Renault 5 turbo in my boot... right up to the seats, she had to but cut out... lived to tell the tale.
Very, she was insured and later thanked me for not insisting she was done by the police. As much I was was concerned about the car, it was worring to see someone out cold, having coolant sprayed in their face. I thought she had suffered and would continue to suffer enough, and I got paid out for the car so it wan't a problem; just a minor inconvenience at the time.

You sound like me with CX parts then. Though it's a few years since I broken any cars.
