What on earth is this?

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.

Black is a rubbish colour on a Cx surprisingly.
I certainly get more interest in my white
Cx GTi T2 than I do the black one! :?

I don't buy into all this BS salestalk from Roger! Talk about a hard sell.

My GTi T2 is a non sunroof black car although for me it has the far nicer velour sawtooth
interior - I do have a s2 GTi leather interior spare but don't want to do it to such a smart car
As far as I'm concerned mine's almost perfect already - just a shame it's black - the metallic
florentine red is better. :lol:

The car in the ad has incorrectly refurbished alloys as the insert curve/surround lines
shouldn't be black but a mid/cool grey.

If Roger had a white one for sale, it would be the best colour to have the GTI tubo 2 in.

Some years back, a mechanic tried to put in hydraulic suspension into a Citroen ZX 2.0 :o
He gave up after 3 years....

Isn't everyone panting over the SM.

I would love a SM, but I can't afford one at the moment. CXs are consuming a lot of my income, and future income at the moment.

For a big uncompromising quirky 70's style Citroen that goes damned fast,
is huuuuuge and a real head turner, a Cx GTi T2 can do a better job than
an Sm in daily use as it has two extra doors and more rear seating space
to boot!! Ok, ultimately, the Cx has a boot whereas the Sm has a hatch
but then there is always one of these: :D
