I saw a grey one here in Halmstad, Sweden the other day. A woman was driving it and she had a little smile on her face. Probably from the pleasant experience of riding it...
Ah, perhaps 10 years from now i can afford one... -------------------- 1995 XM TCT Automatic (From Sweden, sorry for the bad english)

This was a week or so ago but I forgot to post at the time. Apologies for the crappy camera phone.
![]() They had one on the dealer stand at the National, and I saw one when I was in France the other week, but this is the first I've seen in the wild in the UK. I was beginning to doubt that the RHD version really existed.

Barry parking! I'm just looking forward to the day C6s depreciate as much as XMs have - if I can buy a 1992 XM in 2007 for £500, I fully intend to own a C6 in about 2020 -------------------- 1992 Citroen XM 2.0 I Automatic (daily driver)

Given that the least dense material holding us as high off the ground as we are in an XM is nitrogen, I guess you could say we already are - or is that pushing the definition a bit -------------------- 94M XM 2.5 TD VSX Estate RP 6430 Forest Green

Sorry to keep harking back to the dim and distant past, but nothing interesting happens to me nowadays..... .... Back in the mid '60s driving between Little Aden and Maala in my ID19 I stopped to give a young squaddie a lift. Shortly afterwards he said "This car feels as if its floating on air". I told him he was 80% right. Derek -------------------- 1999 3.0V624v Exclusive Black! (RP8362)
