Impressive what a damned good valet can do!!

I've seen engine bays coated in this lacquer like finish in the past and I think it's
just to make the engine look pretty for a photo in the same way you can paint
tyre sidewalls blacker!! IIRC it goes on with the car wash rinse degreaser used
with a steam cleaner.

Nice looking car for a s2!

Hmmm, thought I recognised it. I nearly bought this car before being tempted away by a new V6 instead... It was for sale at WHM with about 90k miles back in April 2005 (ish). I've still got several high res pics if anyone's interested?

Actually, I'm fairly sure it was still for sale with WHM earlier this year, some three years on... Maybe it's been passed to another trader?

Back in April 2005 it was up for £2500, although he'd accept £2250 at the time. It was due a cambelt/pulley/etc change but I remember being told it had been a company car but there was no record of service history. However, it drove well and everything then worked too.

I'd buy it if I had the dough..... the only thing that could possibly make it any better, would be the addition of a V6*

*Lets blissfully ignore the mortgage fuel prices la la la la la.

Hi Minijet

I like it because of the colour, the trim and that it is a Mk2. Does not make it anywhere near good value of course. My last 96 V6 excl had a slightly higher mileage, 120k, had not been valeted, has lasted a bit over 2 years and cost £500. Keep looking and you will come across better value XM's. There are plenty more Mk2's to come.

I must admit if it where a mk 1 and it was a minter i would pay 2k for it, a fool? your probably spot on wirdy but you cant take it with you when you die and you have to spend it on something. I paid £995 for mine 5 years ago and its still going strong now, bargain, and 2k? well you would loose that in the first year if you bought a new mondeo.

As decent XMs get scarcer the price is going to keep on rising. It really depends why you want one. If you want an executive car for banger price then you're going to start to be disappointed. If you want a car that is more than a bit different, that is almost a "proper" Citroen and endears itself to you in a way that not many modern cars do and you are prepared to cherish then these inflated (?) prices start to look pretty reasonable.

I paid £1300 for mine and it was a good car. It's even better now after I've cured almost every minor niggle.
