Gladly, My XM NOT Up For Grabs...

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.

Due to the 1979 SALE OF GOODS ACT and Jims un Thatcher like U-Turn the moderation fairy has sprinkled some magic moderator dust on the title of this topic.

Joking aside Jim i hope you are keeping well and taking care of yourself, as much as it is nice to see you keeping the XM dont let the burden of a fleet of cars affect your health!

:o :D :D :D
Nice one Jim. Great news. I knew it wouldn't be that easy!!!...Well done changing your mind.
I would possibly do what already has been suggested, split the use of the Xantias to possibly ease things.
As Dean has said, just don't let them effect your health.

Look forward to seeing you and the XM at the X rally later in the year.

Just remember that you're just keeping it and not selling it to yourself so don't fill out the V5. DVLA might start getting a bit confused!

Franklin, its not a MaXi is it?

Not sure when it'll be completed by Russ, as its been a long drawn out project indeed. Been going for around 10 months now and it's not too far off being done. We'll see...

Unfortunately not much time Paul, as 10 months is very drawn out. This time of year is also evil to be working on cars with the cold and the dark so early.

Roll on summer!

Ive done NOTHING in the last 12, well, what I call nothing done.. Getting me down now. Need to have an XM sorted by the end of Feb. Xantia has too many issues to deal with in one go...and tax on xantia is up

It will be either an SED 2.1 Manual on a H plate, or if any good a 2.1 SD Manual on a K plate.. Find out end of the week on the K plater

I'm looking forward to seeing project X Franklin. Is is going to be ready for a big unveiling at the X Rally?

Dean, thanks for spreading some magic mod dust on this topic :D Only you could compare me to Maggie Thatcher :lol: :lol: :lol:

Paul, that's the attitude and you'll be XM'ing very soon now. Pleased to see on the other forum you've sold the V6 Xantia :D That's got to help get an XM on the way back on the road...
