Selling off one (or bits

) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Looks like the VSX turbo has gone.......and I want a white one
Did it end early or did the auction run it's course?.............I can't imagine it finishing with no bids..............not with a starting price of just £10

It was bid up to £102 before Minijet spotted it was gone.
Buying outwith e-bay is the best way, thats how I bought my first XM and CX. Much easier that way, and ofcourse cheaper for the seller

(if they need convincing).
As long as it isn't going to be hung drawn and quartered.

That white TCT could have been a good car to get with that mileage, looks quite tatty though, scratches on the front lower bumper, looks like a hole in the white boot trim.
They could have atleast washed it, white looks good when clean, no interior pictures either.
Shame about the Activa, doesnt look too bad apart from the wheels!
Davetherave, have you decided on what engined Xm you want yet?

I think i have settled on the 2.1 unless i find a 2.5 thats had a bosch conversion (unlikely so yeah 2.1)!
2.1 should be plenty as my 1.9td is pretty nippy.
Im not fussed whether its manual or auto, so long as it has air con! Also i would prefer a mk2.
I need to find some land to store cars though! anyone know of any! When i get one ill rotate it with the xantia, one for summer and one for winter (unless i end up liking the XM too much!

In that case you'll be selling the Xantia, Xm's are much more comfortable.

Yeah, it has been there since it was listed on e-bay, presumably the seller hasn't removed the advert?
