Citroen manuals ++++

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Hi All

Well the brochure collection is near to home but not for me at even a tenth that price.
The 153 manuals are sold though.

So did you offer him £200 for them then John?


I missed the second auction with offers although had contacted him asking about whether they'd be split up.
We're likely to see sets of the cars the buyer doesn't want now going through for £100 each... :roll:

Hi Andrew

That is very pessimistic of you.

Hey Ho its of to Chesterfield I go next week.

Hi Andrew

Very pleasant ebayer to deal with.
It seems the work of splitting then multiple packing and postage or collection arrangements just did not fit in with his work schedule.
He could see it getting down to individual volume description and contents details as well.
I think he only accepted my offer for the lot because of the very large number of phone calls asking him to split.
That puts the Lexia 3 purchase on hold for a few weeks. Fortuntely I have stopped buying XM's, even 2.5TD's.

Well, in the event I haven't upset you - please let me know what your thoughts are
on the Xantia and Cx volumes should you want to sell them!? It may not surprise you
to learn I have several examples of each of these Cits too! :lol:

Desperately need to understand why my v6 Xantia now doesn't want to work...

Collecting the cars is the easy bit - sorting their foibles out aint! :D

Not me Bob.

John xmexclusive is the winning bidder! Seems I missed out on the bidding fun here...
