I had an early 2.oi manual for a first.. it was ok, a bit slow though but ok. I say ok, as mine was an I spec... manual seats, manual mirrors etc etc... I dont think the 2.oi goes as well as the 2.1 td.. HOWEVER, its a FIRST edition, on a G and looks VERY tidy! WELL DONE..

Paul,

without the stifling properties of a cat and autobox, it will hussle very nicely thankyou!
I'm jealous as I realise now I want one that colour!

Andrew

Oh yes... hussle it did.. but I just recall mine being slow, now after 3 V6's and a 24v!

My onyx Turbo at the moment is as slow as slow at the moment with a non functioning turbo!!

Now that is SSSLlLLLLOOOWWWWW

Im falling asleep on the way home from work waiting to get to 65mph!!

It has only 2 less horsepower than my R30 (though it's probably a bit heavier). It's not my dream model - however, if it really has been fastidiously maintained then it's going to be the kind of car I couldn't normally afford. It's certainly more of a heart-driven purchase than anything - love that colour! -------------------- Tim 1989 XM 2.0si Manual - Olympic Blue - ORGA 4785 1978 Renault 30 TS Auto - Bronze (oh, alright then - brown)

Im sure its not 132bhp in the R30? Lovly car though tim, I know of another XM I see now and again from the Wirral in that colour, a H plate 2.1 Sd ..

Super Member Group: Members Posts: 200 Member No.: 392 Joined: June 27, 2006	My R30 is the older carb-fed version of the odd-fire PRV V6 Paul - according to this source it has only 131 bhp! http://www.carfolio.com/specifications/models/car/?car=5775 It's quite lightly built though and for such a large car I've always liked its sprightliness. -------------------- Tim 1989 XM 2.0si Manual - Olympic Blue - ORGA 4785 1978 Renault 30 TS Auto - Bronze (oh, alright then - brown)

Andre's Mate Group: Members Posts: 1441 Member No.: 852 Joined: May 23, 2007	Tim, Horse power (bhp) may be close, but the torque produced by your V6 will be much more than the 130ft/lb's the 2.0i can muster, low revs is where you will feel the difference .

Super Member Group: Members Posts: 200 Member No.: 392 Joined: June 27, 2006	Yup - I had imagined that might be the case Dean. But then my R30 is an auto and it hasn't been using first gear for a while now - somewhat blunts the push! I'm sure the XM will have all the oomph I need. -------------------- Tim 1989 XM 2.0si Manual - Olympic Blue - ORGA 4785 1978 Renault 30 TS Auto - Bronze (oh, alright then - brown)
