Superb XM turbo 4x4 hybrid

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.

Following a divorce, I find myself broke with this beautiful car.
It is a candy pink XM with interior leather Nutella. Ideal to go shopping to Lidl or Aldi, it parks easily in locations reserved for trucks.
Its impressive mileage leaves you a comfortable margin to take it home, or you can show it proudly in the driveway of your home! There you will, you will recognize... you will be the owner of "the big pink car". THE END OF anonymity, you will become a star in your city, or at least in your neighborhood.
It has FM radio, doors that open the inside to the outside. A boot to take your picnic. A cup holder trimmed to receive a glass of wine or a can of good German beer 33cl.
The engine runs on gasoline, but it can be run on diesel, ethanol, sunflower oil and from time to time in clear weather a vittel Mint.
The air conditioning works fine, it cools superbly well in winter and warms effortlessly in the summer. Having little interest in the converse.
This car has won a of many competitions of tuning in Latvia and Moldova. the Moldovan Government has handed over a large sum that we take the car accross the border! We did I think much too much shade to the local associations of tuning.

I am separated from my titan in Exchange for good care of its new owner.
One-off. This model is a future collector!
You will have great difficulty in separating from it, it is a car you get attached to and has more than one name.

make your offers.

I wonder if we bought it, would our government be so generous in their payment to re-export the thing? :D

I would certainly pay something not to have it.
Although, having a cup holder . . . No, no, don't be silly, now.

Perhaps this is more to your taste?

Someone has at least gone too the trouble of fitting DIRAVI to a 2.1

Oh God help us please to forgive those who have sinned so terribly against the XM we love, and style in general. Help us find the strength not to laugh/deride/murder them, but guide them, direct them to the club and offer them support and spares to put right their wrongs. Amen...

At least the engine bay looks clean, if tacky :?

Come on people! Stand out of the crowd, and be proud! I think like you, you shouldn't risk a divorce by making a nice XM car like that however, these people do deserve more credit.
You like Toyota Corolla's (colour standard grey) more.....? no? :) :)

I'd take the corolla over them any day, they look like the outcome of a crash into the Halfords 'styling' dept. I wonder if the owners know the traffic cops by their first names...
