Nice low kilomentrage as well.

Wrong wheels for 24v of s1 vintage and whilst it IS a manual 170ch doesn't sound right for power?
Those sills and aprons whilst probably pukka Citroen don't do it any favours for me either!

No i agree, im not a fan of that styling kit is has on. Was this ever a UK option? Ive never seen it over here. It makes the car look chunky and clumsy.
Looks tidy though, less than 41K miles!

What tells you for sure its a 24v Andrew, could be a 12v manual... Agreed, horrid wheels, a S1 should have the "Proper" 24v alloys.. I must admit though, in my shead back home, I have the Body kit sitting, moment of madness when I had my first White V6, was going - no infact, I put it on the car...
Never fitted it again..
The WOOD on the doors is also in the WRONG place, making them prehaps "Normal" early SE door trims before the wood was put in.. Yes theres wood under the glove box and centre console, but these easyilly added.
Unless your french is better then mine

I suspect that it is a SEi V6 that someone has put the body kit on, and that the wood on the doors was an afterthought as well. I've never seen wood there on a XM.
The 24V exclusives have the nice wheels that Andrew has on his KYAC car. This probably car had the orginal SEi wheels and they de-lacquered and started to go bad, hence the etoile de mer wheels being put on.
Then again, all that body kit stuff can be took off it, and return the car to standard spec.

Actually Paul, I'm NOT convinced it's a 24v'er whatsoever!
I need to get KYAC and the 24v'er sorted with the right alloys.
Those stick on wood bits are all wrong - ebay?

The stick on wood is a bit like this one WHM are selling.

Look at the door handle surrounds.

In my opinion it has the best Xm wheels, but we are all different
I do quite like the 24V wheels, but i think they suit the S1 cars better.

Yeah, looks nice, if you can dig the wheels and the added junk. The wood is in the wrong place and 170 horses is a 12 Valve V6

Let's put on these wheels, OK?
