Moving to UK with work, anyone interested in my Xm?

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.

Just looked through the thread and its had a very thorough rebuild so well worth that money IMO.
That is the AC radiator.

I thought that was the one infront of the normal rad? I mean the one that seems to be mounted vertically..

Oh! Yes, the car initially had an automatic gearbox so that is the gearbox oil cooling radiator.
The automatic gearbox was broken so i replaced it with a manual one from a series one and the with a manual HDi gearbox.

Interesting. So, is it tricky to fit the BE3 on the 2.1td? Did you get it to work 100% smooth as in a Xantia?

Ah, I see you have a thread, I better go read this for info.

Yes to both questions. I had to redesign the gearbox support cause nothing fitted and hydraulic clutch.
After driving a Xantia with identical gearbox i got motivated. When i changed the gearbox i was in a hurry and didn't took pictures.
