Thats 4 green estates listed on e-bay in such a short time, 3 x 2.5 TDs. Bloody busses. Wait for one...

Hi All

The RHD 2.5 estate was over produced and stockpiled in 1995/6 with many waiting for a year or two to get sold.
I am reasonably certain that they were the largest selling volume of UK Mk2 XM's (all were VSX's).
In sales numbers the 2.5 cars (VSX & Exclusives) was probably the next in line.
I still expect a good few of these to appear for sale during the next year.

No need to shout, sir. (In case you didn't know, using caps like that on a forum is generally considered bad form - rude, if you like). If you believe (as clearly you do) that you have been maligned, then just say. It's a debate we're all happy to consider - after all, it's a very subjective area.

I would have thought the price is on the high-ish side, but I've seen higher! If someone really wants it and it gets the support you offer, then I can see it being a reasonable price to pay. But that's the starting price isn't it. Maybe it won't climb that much from there? But if it does; well done!

[bobhalliday]

Sorry if I upset you Savoy, but that is still my humble opinion.

Bob.

How come its a 1998 with a 2.1 engine? I thought they changed over to the 2.5 in 1995 or so.

[robert_e_smart]

They added the 2.5 Estate along side the 2.1 Estate for the series 2.

Perhaps someone can clarify when the 2.1 Estate went out of production. Nothing odd about a 1998 2.1 Estate.

[xmexclusive]

I think that XM estate production (all engine types) ceased in 1999 a year before the XM car production stopped.
The 2.1 engine was retained as an option to the bitter end.
