XM specialists in Ireland and Northern Ireland, XM specialists ROI and NI

[JocelynM]

Good morning and happy New Year to everyone.

I have been browsing through this website since this morning, and it is most comforting to see that some people still believe in these cars – as well as in hydropneumatic suspension for that matter– outside France.

I am actually writing from Belfast to which I drove all the way from France with a 1997 Citroen XM 2.5 TD Exclusive (420 000 Km).
However, prior to leaving France, I did attempt to find decent Citroen specialists in both Ireland and Northern Ireland, just in case I should have trouble with my car (I do a great deal of maintenance myself, but there are things I cannot do, if you see what I mean).
Here is the list of specialists I have found (please feel free to add more relevant contacts):
