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.

No idea. I'm up in Dundee for the weekend, we were just outside the city when it died, so I got towed to the hotel. I'll try and get the car home on Sunday.

Piston has come through the cylinder block. Car wasn't overheating, and came out of nowhere. So the engine is gone. Getting the car recovered tonight, but no idea what I'm going to do with it. If anyone fancies a project, they can have it, first decent offer takes it. Or I might consider breaking it.

Hiya Dean. That's a kind offer, but I've just seen you're on the isle of Wight. Probably about 900 mile round trip from where I am.

Yes i am.
I could deliver for free to Sheffield and meet or possibly pass on to another forum member in that area if they were willing but that will not be untill the 16th May, a pallet delivery to your door would be around £60 from here i would guess.

Car is now sold pending pick up. It's been bought by a Citroen enthusiast who plans on adding it to their collection. I'll pass on your message though Dean. Thanks for the offer though!

Not a problem, would be a shame if it were scrapped so it's nice you have found it a good home, there is currently someone who has put in a bid on the engine parts so i can't pull them from ebay now, ends tomorrow evening i think.
