newbi
hello all
ive just got my 2nd XM . i used to own a j reg xm prestige saloon 2ltr 10 years ago, ive owned many other cars in the ten years but none as good so ive now purched my second xm , its a 3ltr 12 valve n reg exclusive in black with only 52k on the clock, the only fault so far is the AC doesnt work . it hasnt been recharged for some time so i think all the rubber gaskets will have perished but i am well cuffed with the car and i am planning to use it every day

Welcome Stan and the early S2 with a V6 12v engine is certainly an interesting combination! Regards, Matthew T.

Re: newbi
These Early S2 PRV V6 engines are a different CC to ours, and the dip stick is also relocated to the centre of the front heads, rather then comming up to the left side..
I couldn't tell you the exact CC decrease or increase now..

Re: newbi
Possibly not John, as running the older unit on LPG had it running down on bhp anyway..
