Hi
I have recently acquired a pretty tidy XM estate
It had a few faults, most of which i picked up before buying it & most of which are fixed now (MOT due soon)
Seems pretty rust free apart from some jacking damage which looks minor but i will investigate after MOT
Loving the car, great fuel economy, 45mpg on short journeys (in the sticks) up to 55mpg on longer journeys - and its real because it tallys with the actual fuel put in - if I have a bit of fun on the B roads, it is a bit less
Really amazingly good handling if you really push through undulating, bendy, odd cambered roads
Love it
Hope MOT goes well
