What wheels, well they're made in Italy, resprayed by me and have 4 new Michelins around it :) I'd put those on for the NCT and they'll go back on the fast XM laters!

I've just realised...you've done a secret swap of wheels. They should be wobbly webs! :lol:

Not on a series 2 Exclusive, they shouldn't. They are the correct 16-valve type.

Lost here but you're right Russ, I swapped those wheels just for the NCT, Il like both types but the diesel looks pretty OK with these alloys as well I think.... :?:

Not to worry, they'll go back on, I think....Just didn't find the time to swap all back again! I like these alloys as well!

:)Why do my XM's always break window cables when it's warm and sunny......

yes, it's happened again, a snapped window cable but thankfully only just the rear door:) Had to take off the door panel on a beautiful sunny spot here in France just to keep it from falling down. That was easy enough.
Ah well it's the first one in 17 years on this door and I'll easily sort that one when I get home:) For the rest so far, all good. Emptied just about another tank of diesel so....it's great here in France, lots of very interesting adventures too.
