Yes, a s2 green EBL estate Peter!! But it's an auto petrol!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1996-CITROEN-XM-V ... 0479329202

I have owned and used this car for the past 41/2 years as a family vehicle and am now selling to make way for a younger (and sexier) hatchback as the family demands diminish. Since an early head-gasket (and cam-belt) replacement she has performed reliably, being regularly serviced and maitained by local Citroen specialists.
Over the past couple of years a new catalytic converter, front discs, alternator and exhaust have been fitted.
There are one or two minor scuffs on the bodywork and some equipment defects that go with the the car's age (e.g. partial loss of pixels on display panel, sticking sun-roof). Please email if you would like further details (though I recommend you inspect the car for yourself before bidding).
The car is generally clean and tidy with five alloy wheels, but only 2 hub-caps.
The engine starts first time every time but is showing signs of wear and tear (exhaust smoking in standing trafficand some noise from turbo and exhaust).
The car comes with 8 months' MOT and 2 1/2 months' Tax. It was recently "sold" on ebay but the "buyer" failed to materialise. It is therefore now offered again with no reserve price but I reserve the right to remove bids from poorly-rated bidders.
If you wish to drive the car you will need to provide your own (comprehensive) insurance certificate as it is no longer insured by me.
If you bid successfully you will be expected to collect the vehicle within seven days and pay cash on collection.
Looks to be in quite good order going purely by the piccies.
Aren't those Cit accessory alloys (Petrona?) XMX or is it Dieselman?

I not sure if it's the PARABOLIC one's your thinking of as they might be those, IMO the spoke's look slightly flatter than the Parabolic one's but they do seem to have the centre hub cap cover like the Parabolic, so they possibly could be :?

You'd really need a better close up photo/shot of the alloy wheel to be 100% sure !
