ANOTHER Glasgow V6 Xantia!

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.

No I didn't.

A Friend of mine who lives in Falkirk called him about the car, and the seller was adament that he could get the code from Citroen.

So my friend called the dealer in Glasgow, who said that they could get the original factory code from Citroen for £30. But I dout that the code has stayed the same.

I didn't look at the original listing, but looking at this one I notice a few things:

1) He has a feedback of 2 - both as a buyer
2) There is no photo of the whole of the car.
3) There are only photos of one side of the car.
4) The interior photo is taken through the window with a coat or something on the seat. Why not open the door and take the coat out?
5) There are no pictures of badges etc. There is one of the engine which could have been grabbed of the internet though it is the same colour bodywork. If he couldn't be bothered to open the door, did he really open the bonnet which requires opening the door? Is it really that engine or spec?

It looks to me like he has taken a photo of a car in someone else's drive and listed it on ebay!
