Citroen XM Forum

Hi everyone!
My name is Adrián, and I am writting from Spain (as title says... ). I can hardly write in English , but it's "good for my health". I'll try....

A short time ago that I launched this forum: http://www.clubcitroenxm.com/
Formerly there was no forum in Spanish dedicated to our model .

In Spain there are not many XM fans... but the few that are, are good.

I would like to introduce my Xm... This is "Moneca Brava II" (impossible to translate the name )









The monster-owner....



She is a very brave 98' V6 24v

See you soon!

Welcome Adrian,

Your car looks excellent, and a V6 Manual! There will nbe a lot of Jealouse people here.

I would like to introduce my Xm... This is "Moneca Brava II" (impossible to translate the name )

Welcome to the club!

The vehicle is female, no doubt.
Does the name imply this is your second XM, or do you have another Moneca, a real woman? (You don't have to answer that)
Could the name be translated as 'Wild Moneca, Temperamental Moneca, or Passionate Moneca?

Hi Adrian,

Welcome to the forum. That is one sexy looking XM, a late S2 V6 manual, Robert's right, we'll all be jealous (well, those of us who aren't lucky enough to be Andrew, Jan, or Derek! )

Hi Adrian; in my case Ciaran is wrong, I am jealous. Not of the manual gearbox - I'm well content with the autoadaptive 4HP20 autobox - but that gorgeous blue colour and the "wobbly web" wheels in place of Jan-Hendrik's Monte Carlo "sausages" .

But that whopping great V6 badge on the front wing is a giveaway, I think I prefer the understated "Exclusive" badge. It doesn't give the boy racers any warning of what they're up against .

My son-in-law asked distainfully what was exclusive about my car. I told him that as there were less than a hundred in the country they were more exclusive than Rollers, Aston Martins and Ferraris.

When they want to give them a ride in it Bad thing is that is a bit distant.... but in XM any distance is small
