Selling off one (or bits

) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

I suppose so. I just thought it would be a good example to restore. I can see why you want to have Paul.

Can't understand why really having owned one and owning and loving a different model with a TCT engine...
I love the TCT engine

I have to admit they do like a drink Russ.. No problem in the other two areas through. Very simple engine and bags of grunt...
You will be able to properly appreciate them when you drive my Activa
On the thirst side, let's just say that overall the V6 is more frugal...

ah I see! A V6 and I assume that is the ES9?..is more fuel efficient than a 2.0 turbo. Right, that's my argument sorted for when I want one after driving yours Jim!

Yes, that is an ES9 Russ...
I've no idea how good the PRV is on fuel...
Fried of mine who has an S1 Xantia V6 has been keeping a tally of MPG since he's had the car (used to be mine) and over two years the overall is 26mpg which includes much urban work with 33 regularly achieved on runs...
He's not one who hangs around...

PRV's useually hang around the high teens too Jim, AS long as you stay off the loud pedal.
The PRV 24v can see high teens if you want to enjoy the lovly "Noise" they make when taking a DEEEEP breath....

I'm going to be very interested in how the ES9 compares to the PRV. My experience from the PRV was the noise. It sounds great, but it is loud if you plant it...which I did many times!
So if you got that TCT Paul, what would you do with it..parts car or resto?
