Hi Ciaran
I wonder what those alloys do to the ride / handling. Looks like the owner isn't too interested in the "magic carpet" ride! and Oh my god! Just noticed the wing at the back. Fantastic! Tony PS. Reckon it's at 8v 2.0 auto too? |

The front looks a bit like a Peugeot 406

...hey, you caught me Peter!
I must admit it looks a bit scary, with its 5+ metres, wouldn't like to have this in my rear view mirror... G -------------------- XM '94 V6 12v, manual, Diravi - Mark "1.5" in black - bought: 138,000mls now: 167,000 miles

Yes the wheels are quite large aren't they! Do wonder how it behaves on those, but as you say, it looks as though the owner isn't too interested in an XM for what an XM is The rear wing... I somehow didn't notice it myself until I read your post. OMG indeed!
I thought that, but I can't make out the side badge. I did however, notice the 'V6' one on the nose, but it looks like one of those Halfords stick on jobs, rather than the proper Cit one... /EDIT: Looking again, I think I can just about make out that the side badge is indeed a V6 one.. anyone concur?

Thunderbirds ARE GO!!
Looks like it does have a V6 badge on the side! Didn't see the badge on the nose though - where's that? I'm missing it every time I look!! The grilles on the bonnet are a bit pointless too - so; when it rains the ECU fills up with rainwater!! Andrew |
